shes a med...both my yorkies are xs so i have to convert the patterns when changing pups if i dont have a pattern in that size. but i believe the run the same size wise..... if you put all the patterns say for a top together you can see how the size variations change it is usually 2 to 4 inches that need to be added around the complete pattern to upsize it. at least this is how i do it if that makes any sense. i did this with a pattern i had all sizes in xxs to large and that is the only way i could figure out how to make a pattern bigger or smaller for a pattern that i only had in a med and wanted to make an xs.
