Pattern "Sequence Sweater" - PetiteKnit

"Sequence Sweater" Pattern - PetiteKnit

The Sequence Sweater is knit top-down in rib (k1, p1) and the yoke is shaped with raglan increases. The sweater is knit with one strand of Isager Yarn's Spinni and one strand of silk mohair held together. The first part of the yoke is knit flat to shape the neckline. The sleeves are knit on double-pointed needles (dpns) or on circular needles using the Magic Loop technique. The neckband is knit at the end from picked-up stitches along the neckline, and it is folded to create a double ribbed neckband.

Please note, gauge should be measured after blocking. This means that while you are knitting, you should get a gauge of about 25-27 stitches per 10 cm. This will relax to 22 stitches per 10 cm after washing and use. Knit a gauge swatch and wash and block it before casting on your Sequence Sweater.

Size guide

The Sequence Sweater has a positive ease of 13-14 cm built into the pattern, relative to your actual bust measurement. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) correspond to a bust circumference of approximately 85 (90) 95 (100) 110 (120) cm. Measure yourself to find the size that suits you best before casting on. If your bust circumference is 95 cm, you should knit a size M.

Please note, your Sequence Sweater will seem quite small when you have just finished knitting it, given its size. When you wash, dry, and wear it, the rib will "open up" and the gauge should be correct, and the sweater will be the right size.

When you wash the sweater and dry it flat, pull it to ensure it has the correct measurements and a gauge of 22 stitches per 10 cm.
