Size Guide

Frankie Sweater Baby should have a positive ease of about 10-12 cm in relation to the child's chest measurement. The measurements of the finished sweater are indicated on the front of the pattern. Measure the child before you start knitting to determine which size will fit best. For example, if the child measures 48 cm around the chest, you should knit a size 6-9 months. A sweater in size 6-9 months has a chest width of 60 cm and in the mentioned example will provide a positive ease of 12 cm. Size chart is available here.
