Size guide

Anker’s Cardigan – My Size is designed to have approx. 3-6 cm [1¼-2¼ inches] of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be 3-6 cm [1¼-2¼ inches] larger in circumference than your widest upper body part measurement. The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm [31½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43¼ (43¼-47¼) 47¼-51¼ inches]. Before beginning your project, measure yourself with a measuring tape around your bust (or widest upper body part) to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 94 cm [37 inches] around your bust (or around your belly if this is the widest place on your body), you should knit a size M.
