Delicate, textural, and quietly beautiful — the Sequence Sweater is a striped raglan worked in (k1, p1) rib from the top down, held together with a whisper of silk mohair for a halo-soft finish. The raglan yoke is shaped with increases, the neckline is worked flat first, and the sweater finishes with a folded double neckband in rib — a refined detail that sets this design apart.
Designed by Petite Knit, this is a rewarding advanced-intermediate knit with a relaxed 13–14 cm of positive ease and a beautifully drapey result once washed and blocked.

A Note on Gauge & Blocking
This sweater is worked in rib, which will relax significantly after washing. While knitting, you should achieve approx. 25–27 sts per 10 cm — this will relax to 22 sts per 10 cm after washing and blocking. Always knit a swatch, wash and block it, and measure after blocking before casting on.
Needles
- 3 mm circular needle — 40 cm (16 inches)
- 4 mm circular needles — 60 cm and 80–100 cm (24 and 32–40 inches)
- 3 mm and 4 mm double pointed needles (or Magic Loop)
Gauge
22 sts × 25 rows = 10 × 10 cm (4 × 4 inches) in (k1, p1) rib in the round on 4 mm needles, after wash and blocking.
