Passap machine knitting instructions for a child’s dress. The dress is knit in two pieces, both the same. They are knit over both beds, in half tubular stocking stitch and short rows.

The pattern calls for 320 g “shadow effect mercerised cotton yarn” (300m per 100g)

Test square: 100 sts = 32 cm, 100 rows (RC 200) = 21 cm

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

This pattern also includes instructions for the Passap Combi machine.

By following the schematic, this pattern can be adapted for use in other standard gauge knitting machines which can knit half tubular ie using both front and back beds to knit stocking stitch, open at one side.

The pattern is pictured on p15 of the model book, (p16 of the pdf), the instructions start on p7 of the instruction book (p26 of the pdf).
