A crochet size chart gives standard body measurements for common sizes, used to grade a garment pattern up or down to fit different bodies. I check my finished gauge swatch against this exact chart before committing to a full sweater. This guide gives a standard reference table.
The Size Chart
| Size | Bust (inches) | Waist (inches) |
|---|---|---|
| XS | 32-34 | 25-27 |
| S | 35-37 | 28-30 |
| M | 38-40 | 31-33 |
| L | 41-43 | 34-36 |
| XL | 44-46 | 37-39 |
| XXL | 47-49 | 40-42 |
Frequently asked questions
Do all crochet patterns use the same size chart?
No, some designers use their own measurement ranges, so always check a pattern’s specific size chart rather than assuming it matches a standard table exactly.
Need the hook size chart too?
Hook size and gauge both affect your finished measurements.
