Passap machine knitting instructions for skirt with a single bed fairisle band decorating the bottom edge. The skirt is knit sideways with the fairisle patterning done either manually via the chart given, via a self punched card or Deco card 89. The motif is isolated so that the patterning only takes place over 17 needles. A tubular waistband is knitted and sewn on to make a channel for waist elastic.

At “cm width of band” insert the desired length of the skirt (e.g. 68 cm). At “cm height of band” insert the desired width of the skirt.
