Regular: 162 – 170 cm (5’4″ – 5’6″)

Choosing your height: The height affects the final fit of the garment at all vertical measurements (not only length, but also armhole depth, depth of the neckline, rise, decorative elements, etc.). If you’re on the boundaries of the heights, follow these recommendations: 1) If you have a long torso, choose the next height, 2) If you have long legs, choose the smaller height, 3) If your torso and legs are proportional, choose the next height.

Notions: Thread; clear or regular knitted elastic, 5 – 7 mm (1/4″) wide and equal to your natural waist length for stabilising waistline // Optional: Clear elastic, twill tape or selvedges from woven fabric for stabilising shoulder seams, 30 cm (12″); matching overlocker threads, preferably woolly nylon stretch overlocking thread.
