Knit a Sweater that Fits ❤️ https://nerdyknitting.podia.com/knits...

It's all about the three basic rules to choosing the RIGHT pattern size for your body in this month's Knit & Chat. We'll discuss the TWO different measurements/sizes you'll find listed in knitting patterns, when to choose a size based on your upper bust instead of your full bust, and what to do about ease. And we're answering some of your comments too.
