Use a flexible tape measure and record values in cm or in. Measure the garment (lay flat) Pit to pit (Bust): Measure straight across from one underarm seam to the other. Multiply this number by 2 for the chest circumference. Shoulder width: Measure from one shoulder seam to the other across the back. Back length: From the center back at the base of the neck down to the hem. Sleeve length: From the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff (for raglan, measure from the center back neck to cuff). Hem width: Measure across the bottom edge and multiply by 2 for the hem circumference. Armhole / sleeve opening: Measure across the sleeve opening to check ease for your arm. Measure your body Bust/Chest: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest; keep the tape parallel to the floor and breathe normally. Waist: Measure at the narrowest point of your torso. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips. Arm length: With your arm relaxed slightly bent, measure from the shoulder point to the wrist. Tip: For an open-front cardigan designed for layering, allow about 4–8 cm (1.5–3") of ease across the bust for a relaxed fit. Choose a smaller allowance for a closer fit. Materials This openwork cardigan is crafted in a lightweight knitted fabric created to highlight texture and breathability. Check the inner care label for the exact fiber composition. Common compositions and their characteristics are: 100% cotton: Soft, breathable, comfortable for warm weather; may shrink slightly—wash gently. Cotton/acrylic blends: Softer hand, better shape retention and easier care than pure cotton. Viscose blends: Smooth drape and subtle sheen; more delicate—handle with care. Wool or wool-blend: Warmer and slightly springy; requires gentler washing or dry cleaning to avoid felting. If you need the precise fiber breakdown for labeling or sensitive-skin considerations, refer to the product tag or packing slip. About the model The model is 178 cm (5'10") and is wearing a size S. The cardigan is intended to be worn with light layering—sizing up will create a more relaxed, drapey silhouette; sizing down gives a neater, closer fit. Care guide (to keep it lovely longer) Always follow the garment's care label first. Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent or use the gentle/delicate cycle inside a mesh bag. Avoid bleach and strong detergents; use a gentle, color-safe detergent. Reshape while damp and dry flat on a clean towel to prevent stretching; avoid hanging heavy knits. Avoid tumble-drying on high heat. If you must tumble dry, use the lowest setting and remove promptly. Use a steamer or iron on low heat on the reverse side for smoothing. For delicate fibers (viscose, wool), prefer steaming. Fold knits for storage rather than hanging to maintain shoulder shape; use cedar or lavender sachets to deter moths from wool items. Remove pills gently with a fabric shaver or sweater comb; handle gently around the openwork pattern to avoid snags. Style tips Layer over a fitted tank or tee for a lightweight, textured look—keep underlayers simple so the openwork stands out. Wear over a slip dress or midi dress for a feminine evening outfit; add a slim belt to define the waist. Balance proportions: pair a long open-front cardigan with slim jeans or tailored trousers; short cardigans look great with high-waisted bottoms. For casual days, roll the sleeves, add sneakers and denim; for smarter looks, pair with ankle boots and tailored pants. Accessorize with a long pendant or layered necklaces that fall into the open front; lightweight scarves add color without bulk. If the cardigan is semi-sheer, choose a contrasting or complementary underlayer to highlight the pattern.
