Choice of size
Find your bust circumference by measuring around the bust (or the widest part of your chest) with a measuring tape. Add 5-10cm to this measurement and select the slipover size closest to that. Remember that you will only get this fit if your gauge matches the pattern’s gauge. The slipover has a relaxed fit, but if you want a tighter fit, select one size smaller.
