Well I bought one! After years with Brothers punchcard and electronic, it was a steep learning curve. After 3 days I produced this, not perfect, but a start!

I think that is beautiful. Is it made on a knitting machine?

Yes Passap E6000, doublebed machine

Wow - that is fabulous! Good for you! Ann

 

[Cat4reid]

That is amazing work for your third day on a passap!

 

[jaysclark]

Thanks for the kind words.

I like it for double bed work, but still think my Brother 970 is more logical and easier to use.

Well done . It certainly isn't easy to change from a Brother to the Passap E6000 so you have done brilliantly in such a short time. Looking forward to seeing some I lovely afghans or baby blankets, the Passap is brilliant for these 😀 Wish I still had mine!

Wow!! I have had mine for several years and have only made swatches!! Great work! I tend to go back to my Singers when the Passap frustrates me, so I don't get ahead.

Really clever after only 3 days, it's lovely, do you have the pattern?34

 

[Ellie in Houston]

So sweet!! I sent you a PM. Thanks, Ellie

If that was produced in 3 days you got it! Continue working on the techniques and you will produce wonderful projects.

Great Job!! Just Beautiful!!
As you use it more & more you'll wonder why you ever thought it was difficult to use. It really is a wonderful machine & I own Brothers, Singer Superba's & Passaps. Just keep at it, you'll love it.

Good Luck & Congratulations,
Mary Jo

Very nice. Wish I still had my Passap DM80.

Hi

Here is the link to the free pattern. I used a different stitch pattern for the one above, but have also done one in the stitch pattern in the pattern.

Looks perfect to me. Super job.

Just wondering - does the Passap have any advantages over Brother or Studio? I've been tempted to buy one because I love the way they look, and there seem to be many magazines and patterns for them.

They seem better at double bed work, but it is a whole different way of working. Lots of different way ways of casting on using different knitting techniques combined with st patterns. Not just needles to deal with, but front and back bed pushers as well.

Glad I bought mine though
