Burda Style For people who sew
I’m about to make the Esther cardigan and I’m wondering about sizing. The Heidi dress I made had quite a lot of ease. This looks like a loose cardigan and I’m thinking if I make it my size then it will be very big. But it’s hard to judge from the pattern pieces how much ease is in it.
If you’ve made this pattern, did you make your size (according to the sizing chart) and did it fit the way you wanted?

Check the measurements. By measuring it at vital fitting points and comparing it to your measurements,you can see how much ease there is and determine what size to make.
