The SABAI top is a light and airy summer top with a boat neckline. It is super easy to knit, requires only a few techniques and is therefore ideal for beginners. In addition to the SABAI Top No. 1 with ribbed borders, there is also a second, completely in stockinette stitch, knit version – the SABAI Top No. 2.
The SABAI Top No. 1 is worked seamlessly top down. First, the neckline border is worked in the round in a 1/1 rib stitch pattern and increases are worked for the slanted shoulders. For the armholes, front and back parts are worked separately back and forth. The stitches of front and back are then joined and worked in the round again. The top ends with a narrow ribbed border with a rolled edge. As the top is knitted from the top down, it is possible (and advisable) to try it on while knitting so that the length can be individually adjusted.
Techniques used: left- and right leaning knitted and purled increases.
