All measurements are in inches and do not include ease.

Other Considerations
It’s important to note that proportions don’t always get larger at the same rate. A great example is the Armhole Depth measurement. While it does get larger, it doesn’t grow nearly as quickly as, say, the Bust.
That’s why it’s a challenge to make one-piece raglan sweaters. While the measurements in smaller sizes will “behave”, it becomes harder as the body size increases. |
