There are a number of reasons this can happen - tension,reading the finished measurements carefully to select ease,etc but I truly feel that the biggest frustration people have with fitting a knit ill fitting after all their work, is selecting a pattern with features that do not suit their figure, (see my a-line Knit 4 cardigan that now belongs to my daughter)
I love this cardigan - but not on me!
Of course another issue is not knowing how to make modifications to adapt a pattern to their particular figure.
I was really excited to come across this series of articles at Knit Stash Repeat on Fit to Flatter. This is a fabulous resource.
I think knitted garments should always turn into favourite, flattering clothes.
