Guide to sizing Handmade cardigans:
1. Age Range:
This is the recommended age range for each size. It is divided into the following categories-
newborn, 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-2 years, 2-3 years, and so on.
2. Measurements to Consider:
- Chest: When measuring the chest, wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of the child's chest. Make sure it is not too tight or too loose.
- Length: Measure from the base of the neck (or where the collarbone starts) down to the desired length of the cardigan.
- Sleeve Length: Measure from the shoulder point down to the desired sleeve length.
- Shoulder Width: For a well-fitting cardigan, measure from shoulder to shoulder across the back.
- Armhole Depth: This is the measurement from the shoulder to the underarm.
3. Fit and Style Recommendations:
- Ease: Consider how snug or loose you want the cardigan to fit. You can add ease by adding a few inches to the chest measurement for a more roomy fit or remove inches for a tighter fit.
- Length: Choose between cropped cardigans, hip-length, or longer options depending on the desired look.
- Sleeve Style: consider the different sleeve lengths such as long sleeves, three-quarter sleeves, or short sleeves.
4. Additional Tips:
- Please take into consideration the stretch and flexibility of materials used in the cardigan. This will help you to understand how much stretch you can expect, and should be factored into the size selection.
- These are approximate sizing guidelines only, please reach out for custom options if needed.
Please remember, this is just a general sizing guide and may vary based on the specific knitting pattern and yarn used. Every care is taken in providing measurements, however, this is a unique item loving made by hand, and no two items are the same.
