Today we're talking Bess' The Ruffle Addendum - and how a sweater can be well graded and knit by a talented knitter and still end up poorly fitting. Join us for a discussion of some basic fit modifications for your handknits, including armhole depth and bust darts.

Find Jen's pattern page for The Ruffle Addendum.
