Finished Bust Circumference - 40 (42) 44 (46) 50 (52¾) 54 (58) 60 (64)“ 100 (105) 110 (115) 125 (132) 135 (145) 150 (160) cm

The Clay Tee has 10” {25 cm} of positive ease for sizes XXS-L and gradually less positive ease for sizes XL-5XL. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust circumference of 30 (32) 34 (36) 40 (45) 48 (52) 56 (60)“ {76 (81) 86 (91.5) 101.5 (114) 122 (132) 142 (152.5) cm}. For example: If you measure a 34” {86 cm} bust you will make size (S) with a finished bust circumference of 44” {10 cm}. Sample shown modeled is 5’ 2” {157 cm} tall wearing Size (S) with approx. 10” {25 cm} positive ease.

Gauge - 20 sts and 38 rows = 4 x 4” {10 x 10 cm} in textured pattern worked flat on 4 mm (US Size 6) needles, blocked. Note: Measure gauge over the textured pattern.

Needle Size -
4 mm (US Size 6) 16, 32 and/or 40” {40, 80 and/or 100 cm} circular needles, or the required needles to obtain gauge
