PetiteKnit - Sequence Sweater
The Sequence Sweater is knit from the top down in rib (k1, p1) and the yoke is shaped with raglan increases. The sweater is knit with one strand of Spinni from Isager Yarn 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 a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique. The neckband is knit at the end from picked up stitches along the neckline, and it is fold over to result in a double neckband in rib.
Note, the gauge should be measured after blocking. That means that while you knit should get a gauge of around 25-27 sts per 10 cm. This will relax into 22 sts per 10 cm after washing and in use. Knit a gauge swatch and wash and block it before casting on for your Sequence Sweater.
