@ferdsje What size do you generally take in other brands we may be familiar with on the SF boards? See my response below too.
I have this cardigan and would take a pic for further reference, but it's stored in a bin until the cold weather breaks. Contrary to what others are saying about sizing knits, I actually find the knits to fit on the slimmer side, not the larger side so goes to show you how we each perceive/experience clothing differently. I just personally hate my knits fitting too slim and feel they should have a bit more room/slouch for layering, etc.
I am a 39/40 in Eidos shirts, L in the Lupos (which are cut very slim), 40 in the suits/sports coats, M in the casual tops, and I'm a medium in the knits that I have owned so far. I have the cardigan in a size medium and I can get some overlap when closed, but barely. I'm sure it will stretch more with wear.
Agree with teddieriley here. For reference, below is a picture of me wearing the cardigan (posted last October). It's a size M, stretched a little bit. I'm size M / 40R in most Eidos clothing, including Lupos and sweaters, a little smaller than teddieriley, so I do get some overlap (which I want). Whatever size you decide is best, just make sure you get the Thompson Cardigan - it is a lot of fun to wear
