Selecting a size Dahlia Sweater has an intended positive ease of 10-15 cm [4-6 “]. It is shown with approx. 15 cm [6”] of positive ease. Find your personal size by measuring yourself around the chest (or the largest part of the body). Then look at the measurements at page 1 (this is the finished measurements of the Sweater). Positive ease is the difference between your bust circumference and the bust circumference of the Sweater. Is your bust circumference e.g. 94 cm [37 inches], a size M will give you 11 cm [4.5”] of positive ease (105 cm – 94 cm = 11 cm). [41.5“ – 37“ = 4.5” ]. The length is measured at the center back, including the neckband.
