My daughter, a CT tech, is a small size 4. Fortunately scrubs need to be a little roomy and not an exact fit. Joannes has some scrub type fabrics and I usually had no problem finding holiday fabrics. I usually had to alter the necks because the patterns were usually cut too low. We had a real blast when she had a strict hospital dress code but could get as wild as she wanted for her own scrub caps. Lately she has gotten some very nice quality scrubs at her local Big Lots. They launder very well, are pretty fade resistant.and very reasonably priced. The ones with ties at the waist are the only fitting her tiny frame needs.
