How to choose your size by taking the right measurements

Chantal is the purple-haired, potty-mouthed knitwear designer behind Knitatude. She writes modern, size-inclusive, beginner-friendly and easy-to-read knitting patterns (with a special love for garments). Whether you’ve knit a sweater before or you just need a mindless pattern to knit in front of the TV, you are sure to find a timeless classic with one of Chantal’s designs. When she’s not stitching, you can find her curled up with a romance book and her two wiener dogs Kurt Russel and Spinelli.
