SIZES
1 (2) 3

MEASUREMENTS
Length (measured at the center back): 58 (61) 64 cm 23 (24) 25 inches
Circumference: 116 (125) 136 cm 45.5 (49) 53.5 inches

SIZE GUIDE
Sweater No. 20 has an oversize fit. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 30 (30) 20 cm 12 (12) 8 inches in relation to your bust circumference.
Sizes 1 (2) 3 are equivalent to the European standard sizes: XS-S (M-L) XL-XXL and suit a body circumference of approx. 80-90 (90-100) 100-120 cm 31.5-35.5 (35.5-39.25) 39.25-47.25 inches.
If you are in between sizes, size up.

For example: You measure 90 cm 35.5 inches at your widest + 30 cm 12 inches = 120 cm 47.5 inches. Meaning you would choose a size 2 with a finished circumference of 125 cm 49 inches.
