Size guide
Sweater No. 19 is an oversize sweater with tighter sleeves. Calculate a positive ease of approx. 35 cm [13.75 inches].
The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) are equivalent to the European standard sizes, 34-36 (36-38) 38-40 (40-42) 42-44 (44-46), and a bust circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37.7 (37.5-39.25) 39.25-43.25) 43.25-47.25 inches].
Measure yourself before you begin to decide which size suits you best.
For example: You measure 86 cm [33.75 inches] at your widest. 86 + 35 = 121 cm [33.75 + 13.75 = 47.5 inches]. Meaning you would choose a size S with a finished circumference of 120 cm [47.25 inches].
