I use the Apparel Design and Production Handbook/A Technical Reference by fashiondex. It has all the standard body measurements and grade rules.

I would love to do test knitting. I am a stick, no boobage and is a US size 4 modern day with extremely long arms.

If you need more testers, please let me know! I am a size M to L, with a C or D cup. I would be happy to put some other WIP’s on hold to test knit this, since I love the square neck and raglan shaping and SHORT ROWS

I would love to test knit. I’m a size 16W with a 47″ Ecup chest. I normally need to add short rows to make something that fits my waist and then my chest. Cheers Eva

I would love to test knit it for you…size 14….well-endowed, etc…it looks like just what I have been looking for as a summer top!

Me, me, me – I’ll test for you, Jody! In fact, I would be honored to do it. :o)

I’m so glad you’ll be selling the pattern. I was hoping you would. I hope you find a size 32, barely-chested knitter, to test knit. I would, but I don’t think I’m at that level, yet.

I’d love to buy a pattern for something like that. Why not give it a go?

This is a link for some standard body measurements. They are the measurements for the body not the finished product so you can decide if something will be close fitting or baggy.

I would test knit – I am definitely on the lack of boobage side. I usually knit a 34″ bust if that makes any difference
