Fit
Bouclé sweater is short and loose fitting. The sweater is worked top down, so the length can be easily altered. When you are selecting a size, measure your bust circumference (or the widest part of the torse). Select the size where the sweater’s bust size is 12-18cm more than your measurement. This means you are factoring positive ease of 12-18 cm.
