The SABAI Top is an airy light summer top with submarine neckline. It is super easy to knit, requires only a few techniques and is therefore ideal for beginners.
The SABAI Top No. 1 is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom. First of all, the neckline collar is knitted in rounds in the 1/1 rib pattern and increases are worked for the shoulder slope. For the arm cutouts, the front and back parts are knitted separately in back and forth rows. The stitches of the front and back parts are then combined and knitted again in rounds. The top ends with a narrow ribbed collar with a rolling edge. Since the top is knitted from top to bottom, it is possible (and advisable) to try it on during knitting, so the length can be adjusted individually.
Techniques used: Left and right inclined increases in right and left stitches.
