ADVICE
“This garment
is oversized so
you may choose
a smaller size
than you would
normally require if you
don’t want it to be so
large on you. If so you
may need to lengthen
the sleeves.”LK DESIGNER,
Jacinta Bowie“There are lots
of stitches for
all sizes so
you may find it
easier to use a
circular needle
and work back
and forth”LK Editorial Assistant,
Libby Loughnan
