Size & Measurements Chart 

Check the child’s measurements against the measurements in the size chart to get the best fit.  These sizes are based on ATSM standard measurements and may NOT correspond to typical ready-to-wear sizes.  If your child’s waist and height measurements fall under two different sizes, you can achieve a custom fit by altering the pattern according to the instructions in the pattern tutorial.
