Skipavika Jumper is intended to have approx. 20-24cm (7.75-9.5)" in positive ease in chest circumference. Skipavika is an oversize fit, the one knit and photographed is a size Medium.

If you are in doubt with the size - Choosing your regular size will give you an oversize fit (intended design), but if you wish a tighter fit, you can size down one size
Example: If I usually wears Medium, I would choose to knit the Medium size, and the knit will have its oversize style
