This is the latest Sabel Boyfriend Cardigan sewing kit just released by Minerva Fabrics.

This is the perfect time to satisfy your creative juices with a gorgeous collection of winter sewing kits.



This exclusive sewing kit comes with everything that you need: soft stretch knit fabric, matching thread, wood-textured buttons, knit interfacing and ball point machine needles. The fabric is from Minerva’s Core Range collection. It a lovely heavier-weight stretch polyester, viscose and lycra stretch knit fabric This super soft knit emulates the look of a cable knit sweater with the ease of a core range knit fabric.


This latest layering kit release offers 5 colour options. Each one of these completed kits has been sewn by other talented Minerva Brand Ambassadors, and can be viewed by following the links below.

  1. My featured colour: Grape, although I think it is definitely more a deep dusty rose.

  2. Anthracite: a deep darker grey

  3. Dark Jeans Blue: a lovely denim colour

  4. Teal: a rich blue/green

  5. Silver Grey: a subtle light grey



The Sabel Boyfriend Knit Cardi is perfect for wrapping up in warm layers for winter.

It features oversized styling with patch pockets, a dropped shoulder and slim sleeves.

It is a boxy cut pattern that only has four pieces! Assembly is quick and easy, but not for beginning sewers as Style Arc patterns do not come with illustrations guide your sewing.



I had extra knit fabric with my order so that I could make a skirt to match. I used the free Elemental Skirt Pattern from Sew House Seven. This is fast becoming my go-to quick sew, pull on skirt. I made my cable knit knee length to utilize all of my left over fabric. You really only need 1/2 meter extra if you cut out your cardi carefully, the fabric is 150cm wide so it affords lots of room to lay out your pattern pieces.


The entire outfit together is definitely all about wearing #secretpyjamas. Throw on a pair of fun boots and a hat and you are winter fashion ready. You can see a longer version of my Elemental Skirt here. It really is a versatile, easy to sew, easy to style skirt that you will want to customize than make over and over.



I love my Sabel Boyfriend Cardigan and so appreciate begin able to sew this wonderful kit as a Minerva Brand Ambassador. You can choose from so many fun chunky knits and vary the length of the cardigan to create your own wardrobe of oversized layers.


After all…. There is Sew Much To Design,


Happy Boyfriend Cardi Sewing,
