SEKVENS SWEATER

Description

Photos, design and text © PetiteKnit

The Sekvens Sweater is knitted from top to bottom in the rib pattern (1 re, 1 li) with raglan increases with a thread spini and a thread silk/mohair. The first part of the pass is knitted back and forth to shape the neckline. The sleeves are knitted on a set of double-pointed needles or with the Magic Loop method. Finally, stitches are picked up along the neck cutout and a double ribbon edge is knitted over this.

Note that the gauge must be measured after tensioning. This means that during knitting you will measure a stitch sample of about 25-27 M per 10 cm, and then after washing and tensioning when wearing a stitch sample of 22 M per 10 cm results. Knit first, wash and tighten a knit sample before you begin the actual knitting of your secvens sweater.
