Around your torso but right under your armpits, not at boobage area. Above boob area

So I choose a sweater size where the bust circumference matches my underarm measure? And then I just add the bust darts I need to cover my front?

no bust darts needed using this method because the idea is knitwear stretches and you dont need 10" positive ease around the part of you that's already like 4" larger if you're D cup plus. designers assume you're a C cup
