How to measure your sweater
Lay your sweater flat. Measure the bust 1 inch below the armholes and double it for the full circumference. Measure the hem straight across and double it. Length runs from the top of the shoulder to the hem; shoulder width runs seam to seam across the back; sleeve length runs from the shoulder seam to the sleeve edge.
Our fit model is 5′7″ with a 34.5″ bust, 27″ waist and 37.5″ hip, and wears Small.
