Finished bust circumference of the Vest (including positive ease) is as follows:
Inches: 36.5 (41.75) 44.5 (49) 52.5 (57) 61.25 (65.75) 69.25
CM: 92.5 (106) 113 (124) 133 (144.5) 156 (167) 176

This is designed to fit a bust circumference of:
Inches: 28–30 (32–34) 36–38 (40–42) 44–46 (48–50) 52–54 (56–58) 60–62
CM: 71-76 (81.5-86.5) 91.5-96.5 (101.5-106.5) 112-117 (122-127) 132-137 (142-147) 152.5-157.5

The Mya Vest is designed to have approximately 6.25-9.5 inches (16–24 cm) of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be 6.25-9.5 inches (16–24 cm) larger in circumference than your bust measurement. So if your bust measures 34 inches / 86.5 cm, knit a size S which will give a finished circumference of 41.75 inches / 106 cm.

Suggested yarn: Dk-weight yarn that matches the gauge
The Blue version uses 2 strands of Fingering weight yarn held together - total yarn needed is as follows:
