This pattern includes two bust cup options, and the cup size is determined by calculating the difference between the high and full bust. If the difference between your high bust and full bust is between 0” and 2” (5 cm) use the A/B cup. If the difference is between 2” (5 cm) and 4” (10 cm) use the C/D cup. If you have more than a 4” (10 cm) difference, you may need a full bust adjustment.

  • six or seven 1/2″ (12.7 mm) buttons for the centre front;
  • two or four 1/2″ (12.7 mm) buttons for the long sleeve cuffs;
