Purloining my own show notes from last year when I talked about subbing a different yarn that is not the same gauge:
How to substitute yarn of a different gauge in a pattern.  A little bit of math is involved, but it's not too difficult.
 
Pattern gauge - 4 sts per inch
Personal gauge - 4.5 - 5 sts per inch
Stitches at the bust to get desired size, which in this case for me is 34:
 
x sts/34" = 5sts/1"
x = 34*5
x = 170 sts
 
This will be the number of stitches needed across bust to get the desired 34" bust measurement. Next, look through the pattern to find which size gives that number of stitches at the bust.  Use the numbers for that size in order to get the size I want.
