Scroll down a few photos to see a screenshot of the entire measurements for this sweater and the schematic
Size 1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6) (7, 8, 9, 10) {11, 12, 13, 14}

FINISHED BUST MEASUREMENTS:
32 (34.5, 36, 38.5, 40, 42.5){44, 46.5, 48, 50.5}{54.5, 58.5, 62.5, 66.5} inches, {81.5 (87.5, 91.5, 98, 101.5, 108){112, 118, 122, 128.5}{138.5, 148.5, 159, 169} cm}
I recommend choosing a finished bust measurement that is around 2 - 6″ {5 - 15 cm} larger than your actual bust measurement. Sample is size 5 with 4″ {10 cm} of positive ease.

Yardage may vary if your gauge/yarn is different

Sample uses: The Wool Barn Merino DK (100% SW Merino, 8 ply, 273 yds/100g) in the colorways ‘Charcoal’ (MC) & ‘Sand’ (CC)

Affordable yarn options that some of my testers used:

• Woolike held double for about $3.19 a ball (678 yds/100g) - great value even when held double
• Soft & Sleek DK from Hobby Lobby for about $5 a ball (478 yds/4 oz)
• Knit Picks City Tweed DK for about $6 a ball (123 yds/50g)
• Comfy Cotton Blend for about $8 a ball (392 yds/7oz)

Rib Needles: Set of circular needles 2 sizes smaller than what you use to meet gauge with in the same cable lengths. In this case US 3 (3.25 mm).

Or size needed to match gauge.

20 sts/29.5 rounds = 4″ {10 cm}
