Size Guide + Finished Measurements
The pattern is written in 8 sizes, 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) with a finished circumference of 42 (46, 50, 54, 58, 62, 66, 70) in/105 (115, 125, 135, 145, 155, 165, 175) cm. It is intended to have 2-8 in/5-20 cm of positive ease. You can measure the circumference around your arms and bust together to determine the appropriate size. For example, I measured 47 in/117.5 cm around my arms and bust and knit a size 4 for about 7 in/17.5 cm of positive ease. The capelet is intended to fit just above the elbows but feel free to adjust collar and body length as desired.
