Let me see if I can find some examples -</p> <p>Here is an edge to edge cardigan <a href="http://www.mandco.com/cardigans/edge-to-edge-cardigan/invt/1099809raspberry/" rel="nofollow">http://www.mandco.com/cardigan.....raspberry/</a> </p> <p>and here is a 'normal' long cardigan, with button fastening - <a href="http://www.asos.com/Whistles/Whistles-Anemone-Linen-Maxi-Cardi/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=1405798&#038;cid=2637&#038;Rf900=1456&#038;sh=0&#038;pge=1&#038;pgesize=20&#038;sort=-1&#038;clr=Grey" rel="nofollow">http://www.asos.com/Whistles/W.....8;clr=Grey</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-the-heck-is-edge-to-edge#post-365307 Sun, 12 Jun 2011 03:25:13 +0000 Suz 365307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where I've seen it, they are referring to measurements. That way, if you are considering ordering, you can measure a similar garment you already own to estimate fit. Because one size 8 is another size 6 or 10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-the-heck-is-edge-to-edge#post-365253 Sun, 12 Jun 2011 01:22:17 +0000 elpgal 365253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am guessing it means it was knitted edge to edge and does not have side seams.</p> <p>ETA: I was wrong; this one has seams.<br /> <a href="http://us.asos.com/countryid/2/River-Island-River-Island-Edge-To-Edge-Cardigan/vs49d/?iid=1509875&#038;MID=35719&#038;affid=2135&#038;siteID=J84DHJLQkR4-X4LCJV1cRTamNrlL1NOiTw" rel="nofollow">http://us.asos.com/countryid/2.....NrlL1NOiTw</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-the-heck-is-edge-to-edge#post-365241 Sun, 12 Jun 2011 00:36:25 +0000 modgrl 365241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you link to an example? This sounds like a top to bottom measurement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-the-heck-is-edge-to-edge#post-365226 Sat, 11 Jun 2011 23:32:16 +0000 Kristine 365226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know, maybe no ribbing, just knitted edge to edge? Or are they referring to a measurement (24" edge to edge)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-the-heck-is-edge-to-edge#post-365223 Sat, 11 Jun 2011 23:27:27 +0000 Mander 365223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I keep seeing items, especially cardigans, described as "edge to edge", but I can't seem to find a description of what this means. Most of the things I have seen described in this way are on ebay, so I can't see the items in person to figure out what the common features are. They seem to be all kinds of different styles and fabrics, so I'm at a loss.</p> <p>Can someone point me to a good explanation? </p>
