The measurements are dead simple to do and it'll work for any size. The best thing about the pattern is the fact that there are no seams to either the cardigan or the pullover. ;)

The knitting pure and simple patterns by Diane Soucy are quick and easy to do. The tunic is knitting from the top down with no seaming. I'm working on the hooded tunic now and I think the only seaming is for the hood.

This one is straightforward and easy to knit if you ignore the colorwork motif and just do it in solid:

And if you don't mind cables, this one gives you a lot of bang for your knitting buck:
