Sizing Information For Handmade Cotton Knitwear

Our knits are worn soft and loose, and should skim rather than cling to the body. This allows for the movement we feel is necessary to show these beautiful designs, the intricacy of the patterns and stitching to be shown to the best effect. If you require assistance with sizing we will be delighted to advise you. Please Contact Us.

We advise that by its very nature Handmade Cotton Knitwear has a tendency to grow slightly. An allowance for this should be considered when making your choice of size and length.

Lengths

We advise that by its very nature Handmade Cotton Knitwear has a tendency to grow slightly. An allowance for this should be considered when making your choice of size and length.

Sleeve Lengths

Inner sleeve lengths are generally 17.5" (44.5cm). This measurement is from the under arm to wrist seam, & does not include any additional trim, or allowance for drop-shoulder designs.

Some of our designs have a three-quarter-length sleeve & others have a longer sleeve, which may fall on to the back of the wrist. In these cases the variation will be indicated in the description of the individual designs.

Colours, Measurements, Descriptions

Due to the handmade nature of our knitwear, and the individual knitter's interpretation of the patterns, slight variation in the design & stitching illustrated may occur. Even the same knitter is unable to knit two identical garments. This is part of the intrinsic charm of our high quality handmade knitwear.

We accept that a tolerance of no more than 1" (2.5cm) in either direction is passable by our quality controllers, due to variations in knitting tension, but pride ourselves that the majority of our garment measurements are accurate.

Colour may vary slightly to those shown in our photographs. Variation in shade of yarn at dyer's normal variation level will be allowed as acceptable by our quality controllers.
