SIZE
The sizes XS/S/M/L/XL/2XL/3XL correspond to the chest circumference measured directly on your body:

76–82 / 83–89 / 90–94 / 95–98 / 99–102 / 103–106 / 107–109 cm.

DESCRIPTION

The sweater is designed with positive ease: approximately 6–8 cm for larger sizes, gradually decreasing for smaller ones.
This garment can also be knitted in a men’s version.

ADAPTING TO A MEN’S VERSION

To adapt the women’s version to a men’s fit, add approximately 10 cm to the bust circumference according to the women’s size chart and increase the sleeve and body length by +5 cm.

For example, if the bust circumference in women’s size M is 90–94 cm, then for men it will be approximately 100–104 cm — determine your size using the chart and choose it for knitting.
