ACTUAL MEASUREMENTS (after washing and blocking)
Sweater flat width (slightly stretched) - 56 (64, 68) cm / 22 (25, 27) in.
Sweater length (from top of the shoulders) - 53 (54, 55) cm / 21 (21 ¼, 21 ½) in.

SIZES: S/M, (M/L, L/XL).
Model wears size S/M (height 161cm).

GAUGE (Tension): 16 sts and 20 rows = 10cm (4 in), measured over eyelet pattern, (garment being blocked), using 2 yarns held together and 5.00mm (US 8) needle.
NOTE Needle size is only a guide - if you get too many stitches for 10cm, take a larger needle size. If you get too few stitches for 10cm, take a smaller needle size. It’s very important to check your gauge (tension) before starting as working to the wrong tension will mean your garment won’t be size shown.
