How to choose your size
- Determine your cup size—subtract the circumference of your over bust from the circumference of the fullest part of your bust. If the rounded difference is 1″ (2.5 cm), use A cup; 2″ (5 cm), use B cup; 3″ (7.5 cm), use C cup; 4″ (10 cm), use D cup; 5″ (12.5 cm), use DD cup.
- After determining the cup size, compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Using the corresponding row for your cup, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
- Compare your waist circumference (narrowest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that best fits your waist. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
- Compare your hip circumference (widest part) to the “Body Measurements” table. Choose the size that fits your hip best. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
- It’s OK to use different sizes for the bust, waist and hip. The instructions for blending sizes are included in the pattern.
- If you are taller or shorter than 5’6” (168 cm), you should consider lengthening or shortening the garment. The instructions for lengthening or shortening are included in the pattern.

So far so good. I’m an intermediate sewist having started when I was 5 but took many years away to raise my kiddos. I’m working on the collar now but not happy with it. (Due to my lack of experience) I’m going to remove it, cut out another one, and try again. I’ve only made maybe 4 collared shirts ever, but this is the first with the standup piece. I’ve found the pattern and instructions very well done. I love that all the Itch To Stitch patterns are sized the same so once I nailed the adjustments on one I can apply them to all.
Janice –
I have narrow shoulders and a small chest, so I removed the darts and narrowed the shoulders. However, I am very happy with the pattern after these adjustments. I have a second one cut out to start.
Lynda –
Lovely, well fitting shirt pattern with excellent instructions
Jean –
Love this pattern, great to have different cup sizes, makes the shirt fitting so much easier. Layering of pattern is an added bonus, looking forward to making more of Kennis patterns.

I’m on my second Montana now, and I love the blouse!
Size 8 is a perfect fit with no alterations to the pattern.
Tony –
Went together beautifully. Instructions are clear and clearly illustrated. I especially liked the construction technique for the sleeve placket opening. Neat on the inside and outside.

I love this shirt. I’ve made it in very different fabrics, and it’s a pleasure not to have to do bust adjustments myself. Another winner, Kennis!
