Knitting Machines
The stitch sizes given in this model book are for the earlier “Pinkie” Passap. Add an extra half stitch size to get the appropriate stitch size for the later DM80 and E6000 machines.

Instructions are also given in this pattern for the Passap Combi.

By following the schematic, this pattern can be adapted for use in other standard gauge knitting machines.

The pattern is pictured p2 & 3 of the model book (p3 & 4 of the pdf), the instructions on page “A” of the instruction book (p20 of the pdf).
