I read a lot of complaints on Amazon that only "anorexics" could fit into these clothes. I'm a size eight and a medium (pants and top respectively) and have had no size-issues with any of the patterns. I fit into the mediums just as I would in normal clothes.

The patterns themselves are very simple and fun to do as well as being lovely. ( )

NB!!: This is a very poorly marketed book. It specializes in patterns for petite women; Chia's size large is generally for a 33 inch bust. I am not much of a fashionista, and I never heard of the Twinkle design line. Perhaps for those in the know, that name in the title is sufficient notice of the size.

I cannot imagine why the book was done this way, unless the publisher figures that the market share for larger, inobservant women who will buy this by mistake is greater than the share of small women who will be thrilled to see a book in their sizes.

Many of the deisgns are quite attractive. I haven't returned my copy, since I may try to adapt them to my size. Just know what you're buying. I can't comment on the instructions, since I haven't made one, but the patterns look clear and well diagrammed. ( )
