Passap machine knitting instructions for a three piece set consisting of a sweater, skirt and waistcoat / vest

The sweater is knit in pieces from the bottom up, in a 12:4 stocking stitch stripe. The neck is finished with a bow - the ends of which are knit tubular, while the attachment part is knit tubular open at one side.

The skirt is knit sideways with short rows and stripes. A waistband is knitted separately, sewn on with purlside showing and then half folded to the inside and sewn down to make a channel for waist elastic.

The waistcoat / vest is knit in pieces from the bottom up in stocking stitch with DBJ striped edging bands.
