Size: To fit sizes XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL) Finished garment size = 28 (32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60) inches/71 (81, 91.5, 101.5, 111.5, 122, 132, 137, 142, 152) cm, shown in size L
Ease:
Please select the size which provides the ease you desire. For example, if I have a 36 inch chest but want my finished sweater to be loose so I can wear it over my regular clothes. I would choose the 40 inch size or L size.
Below is a handy reference for ease and fit:
Very close = chest + 0 inches ease
Close Fit = chest + 1 - 2 inches ease
Standard Fit = chest + 2 - 4 inches ease
Loose Fit = chest + 4 - 6 inches ease
Oversized = chest + 6 inches and up
