Bust, waist, hip, chest and height below are body measurements, based on standard US and EU ready-to-wear sizing. Measure yourself, not a garment, and pick the size that matches. Length is the length of the finished piece.
How to measure
One soft tape, a few minutes
Use a soft tape measure. Wear light clothes, stand straight and breathe normally. Keep the tape snug but not tight.
- 1Bust
Around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape level across your back.
- 2Chest
Around the widest part of your chest, just under the armpits, with arms relaxed at your sides.
- 3Waist
Around your natural waist, the narrowest part of your body, usually just above the belly button.
- 4Hip
Around the fullest part of your hips and seat, with your feet together.
- 5Length
From the top of the shoulder (or the base of the neck at the back) straight down to where you want the hem. Easiest with a helper.
- 6Child's height
Stand your child barefoot against a wall and measure from the floor to the top of the head. For babies, measure lying down.
- 7Child's chest
Around the chest, under the arms, over a thin vest.
Easiest of all: lay a top that fits you well flat on a table, measure across it from armpit to armpit and double the number. Send us that with your order.

Go by height and chest, not only age: children of the same age can be very different sizes. If in doubt, size up so it lasts longer.
| Age | Chest | Height |
|---|---|---|
| 0-6 months | 41-44 | 56-67 |
| 6-12 months | 44-47 | 67-76 |
| 1-2 years | 47-51 | 76-89 |
| 2-3 years | 51-53 | 89-97 |
| 3-4 years | 53-56 | 97-104 |
| 4-6 years | 56-60 | 104-117 |
Crochet stretches
Crochet has natural stretch. It gives a little with wear and settles back after washing. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger one, or the smaller one if you like a closer fit.
One size
One size (poncho): fits most women from about XS to XL.
Custom measurements
Custom measurements: we can make it to your measurements. Choose "Custom" as your size and write your bust or chest, waist, hip, height and the length you want in the notes. Custom-size pieces are made to order in 4-6 weeks.
