To get the stated measurements you will need to block the sweater to open up the twisted rib. If you try the sweater on before blocking, it will most likely be tight. As the rib is very stretchy you may knit with some negative ease if you like a more fitted look.

NB! Make a gauge swatch in stockinette, as the twisted rib is stretchy and hard to measure correctly.
