THIS IS A PRINTED PATTERN.
The Terrazzo Sweater is designed to have approx. 14 cm [5½ inches] of positive ease. The measurements for the finished garment are on the front page of the pattern (note that these measurements are only achieved if the design is knitted in the correct gauge). Before beginning your project, measure yourself around your bust (or the widest part of your upper body) to determine which size to knit. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part on your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S sweater has a bust circumference of 104 cm [41 inches], which in the given example would give you 14 cm [5½ inches] of positive ease.
