The Field Day Cardigan has around 8”/20 cm of positive ease built into the pattern. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust circumference of 30 (34) 37 (42) 46 (50) 52 (56) 60”/76 (86) 94 (107) 117 (127) 132 (142) 152 cm (the final size of garment will be an additional 8”/20 cm). This means that if you measure a 34”/86 cm bust you will make size (S) with a finished bust circumference of 42”/107 cm. This cardigan is meant to be cropped. If you would prefer a longer garment, you will require more yardage than is listed.
