Hey friend, welcome back to the channel! Today, I’m sharing a review of the SABAI TOP BY SUSANNE MULLER a quick, fun, and easy knit that turned into a wardrobe favorite this summer, but that I know I’ll be bringing with me through the Fall. I’ll talk about the yarn I used, the changes I made, and whether I’d knit it again — spoiler alert: I totally would.
So, I made my SABAI TOP in size 3 and used US 6/ 4.00 mm needles. I knit it with SANDNESS GARN LINE in the color 8561- BLACK. In my opinion, this is the perfect yarn for this project. It feels fresh but still neutral enough to wear with so many things.

I started this project on : 5/23/2025
And finished it on : 7/05/2025 while knitting a few other projects.

This is a fast and fun project — although not a size inclusive one - and its perfect for a couple of weeks knit if you stay focused

Would I make this pattern again? Absolutely. It’s simple, stylish, and really wearable top that is kind of effortless summer knit I know I’ll reach for again and again and I know I will be layering this top also in the Fall and Spring.

As for the YARN, YES, I do love it. The texture, the drape, the color. I love it, it’s worth it. It feels so soft and luxe next to the skin.

THE PATTERN; WOULD I make it again? Absolutely and I really hope the designer will include other sizes so others can also make this fun project!
So that’s my review of the GARMENT.

If you’re looking for a light and breezy summer knit that’s quick but still super cute, I highly recommend this one. Let me know in the comments if you've made the SABAI TOP or plan to — or if you’ve used the YARN I used for this garment before and what you think of it!

Thanks for watching, and I’ll see you next time with more knits and cozy projects.

Till next time, keep Knititng, crocheting, crafting and making what makes you happy.
Tchau “ciao” (the Brazilian way to say goodbye)
