Size guide: The Maiah’s Raglan Jacket Junior is supposed to be worn with an amount of positive ease of approx. 15-17 cm / 6″-6,75″. You can take the child’s chest circumference to determine which size to knit, i.e. for a chest circumference of 59 cm / 23,25″, you should choose to knit size 4-5 years which has a finished bust circumference of 75,5 cm / 30,75″, this would give your garment 16,5 cm / 6,5″ of positive ease.
