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].
