Pattern Details

Size Selection

(A, B, C) [D, E, F] (G, H, I) to fit actual upper bust measurements of (31, 34.25, 37.5) [40.75, 44, 47.25] (50.5, 53.75, 57)” / (78.5, 87, 95.5) [103.5, 112, 120] (128.5, 136.5, 145) cm and actual full bust measurements of (30, 34, 38) [42, 46, 50] (54, 58, 62)” / (76, 86.5, 96.5) [106.5, 117, 127] (137, 147.5, 157.5) cm.

The garment has a finished chest circumference of (33, 37.25, 41.25) [45.25, 49.25, 53.25] (57.25, 61.25, 65.25)” / (82.5, 92.5, 102.5) [112.5, 121, 129] (139, 147.5, 157.5) cm. Choose a size based on your upper bust measurement with consideration for full bust measurement. This pattern was designed to have 2-5” / 5-12.5 cm ease in the full bust, but up to 1″ / 2.5 cm of negative ease will work if bust darts are worked.

This pattern is drafted for people with breasts, and the front is (0, 0.25, 0.25) [0.25, 1, 1.75] (1.75, 2.25, 2.25)” / (0, 1, 1) [1, 2.5, 4] (4, 6, 6) cm wider than the back to accommodate for breast tissue. If you need additional room in the full bust, there is optional short row shaping in the bust to accommodate up to 4″ / 10 cm vertically. See “Choosing A Cup Size” on page 4 for more information.

The designer is wearing Size B with 32” / 81.5 cm upper bust and 34″ / 86.5 cm full bust, with 2” / 5 cm ease in the upper arm.

Yarn Selection & Yardage

View A Yarn

Choose a fingering weight yarn to obtain gauge. The lavender sample was knit with 80% wool and 20% silk as a more transitional and warm option.
