This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download

Gauge: 7 stitches x 6 rows = 5 x 5 cm in half double crochet and 5mm hook. You will need approximately 400g of yarn for XXS and up to 700g for XL. I have used 4 seasons pure wool (8ply). Please ensure your gauge is correct, otherwise the size may come out incorrect. If you need to, change hook sizes.

The sizes below are the sizes of the garment. If you want a more fitted garment, go closer to your measurements. If you want an oversized fit, go a size up! To measure where the length will sit on you, put your tape measure right at the top of the highest point on your shoulder.
Sizes (Chest): XXS, XS, S, (M, L, XL) 88, 96, 102, (106, 112, 118) cms around

Chains do not count as stitches in this pattern. The garment is worked bottom up.
