Choosing size based on ease:

  • A Place In Time Cardigan is designed to be worn with 4”/10 cm-8”/20 cm positive ease at FULL CHEST.
  • Full chest circumference is measured around the widest point of your chest.
  • Example: Sample is size 5, 49”/124 cm. With my full chest at 43”/109 cm, that gives me 6”/15 cm of positive ease. I am 5’2”/157 cm tall and sample body length hits at my mid thighs.
