If you would like your cardigan to be more fitted, move down a size.<\/li><li>It is designed with 20-22&#8243; of positive ease.  Positive ease means your finished garment is larger than your actual bust measurement.  For example, for a size small your actual bust measurement may be 34&#8243; while the bust of the finished cardigan is 54&#8243; (54&#8243;-34&#8243; = 20&#8243; of positive ease).  This means that it is a looser and oversized cardigan compared to a fitted one.<\/li><li>Part of the front and back panels become part of the sleeve as they bend past the shoulders.&nbsp; The sleeve length remains the same for all sizes, but the increased width in the front and back panels help lengthen the sleeves of the larger sizes.&nbsp; The width of the sleeve varies by size. <\/li><li>If you would like the cardigan to be wider, increase the number of stitches you cast on for the front and back panels.&nbsp; If you would like the cardigan to be narrower, decrease the number of stitches you cast on for the front and back panels.<\/li><li>If you would like the cardigan to be longer, increase the number of rows for the back and front panels.&nbsp; If you would like the cardigan to be shorter, decrease the number of rows for the back and front panels.<\/li><li>The<strong> INCREASE ROW<\/strong> in the sleeve is worked as follows: {K1, KFB, K across until last two stitches. KFB, K1.} With this increase row, the stitch count increases by two stitches. The increases are always worked in the second stitch and second to last stitch.
