I want to bay what is the price
I want to know the price
Thank you, very informative. I’m curious if you know how much yarn this would require? For example how much does the finished garment weigh? Just so I know before I start if I need stripes or I can do all one colour.
Bonjour, je souhaiterais acheter ce kit complet pour 4 couleurs. Savez-vous où je pourrais l'acheter car en France c'est introuvable.😢 Merci
I appreciate all the detail in your videos. I do use subtitles and turn it down for the repetitive tune but that’s my sensitive song brain 😂
Ah yes haha I can imagine! 🤣
Çok detaylı anlaşılır bir şekilde anlatıyorsunuz,mükemmel, teşekkürler
You are welcome, thank you so much!
This is great thank you. I have a brother machine but still find your videos very helpful. Do you have any tutorials for a men’s sweater? I’m especially looking for the men’s shawl collar version where it folds across the front opening at the clavicle.
Ah yes, not a video on a men's shawl collar sweater yet. Too much to knit, too little time haha 😜
@ Yeah I definitely relate to that. Anyway thanks for the good tutorials
Very good ❤
Thank you :-)
reeeeeally good content! thanks man :)
You are very welcome! Thanks!
Iam enjoying my afternoon watching your amazing machine knitting videos 🤩👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Haha thank you so much! I wish you a great day! 😀
@ZabbezOriginal Really... You took me back to my 8 or 10 yrs old when we had the same machine... As i was SOOOO excited to learn knitting on it to help my late mom as she knitted our garment and my uncles' as well... Now i am 57 and still love knitting by any means... THANK YOU TREMENDOUSLY 🙏💓
Really nice. I prefer this to the inside seam version
Ah yes!
Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences with knitting machines. Can you please advise which is the best machine among all the brands you know or heard of?
It depends on what you want to knit and what is available where you live. But basically, you can knit beautiful garments on ANY knitting machine, it doesn't matter.
@ZabbezOriginal Thanks for replying... I think there's always a brand that's best in every kind of machinery... But as you said... Any kind can do a good job if the person manipulating it is a genius as Zabbez ☺️
I can't thank you enough for making these videos. I've been trying to learn to use my machines for years but kept getting discouraged and going back to using my Brother machines. Your videos are well made, and so very helpful!
Thank you so much, makes me happy to hear that. Be sure to use and enjoy the knitting machines you have 😀
>Guten Tag! Wo kann mann diese Halterung für Parafin kaufen .Danke
You can sometimes find it in second hand stores and on second hand websites. Good luck!
Wow
Congrats on your gorgeous machine x
Thank you so much! :-)
Are these machines available to buy new ? Love your vids !
Thank you. These machines can only be found second hand. Try second hand websites or search online. Good luck!
Thank you for your very helpful videos. I just bought a Passap Duo 80 machine and your videos are just what I need. You explain and show everything so well.
Thank you so much, it makes me happy to hear that. I wish you a lot of fun on your new machine!
Hello Bas ! I am thinking about buying a machine. Do you know how much does the machine weigh ? Thank you !
The machine is made out of a lot of metal parts and plastics. It is a very heavy machine, but I do not know the exact weight of it.
Thanks 😊
Price sir
Hello I am trying to find a suitable replacement for the retaining cord...do you happen to know where I could find please? Thank you.
I do not know an official store to by a replacement cord. But on one of my Knittax machines I got the cord out and I just put it through the washing machine (at your own risk). That worked fine for me. You can also go to a hardware store and search matching cords. Good luck!
@@ZabbezOriginal Thank you.
Türkçe çeviri olsa cok iyi olacak🌹
Cómo se puede obtener esas piezas para parafinar??. Soy de chile y me gustaría obtener una
Try searching online and on second hand websites. Good luck!
Thank you Bas, fantastic tutorial! So excited to try my ribber attachment now !
The ribbing on this machine is really beautiful!
Thank you so much for such a clear and easy to follow tutorial! I’m a beginner and will apply what I’ve learned to my first project on my knitting machine.
It makes me happy to hear that. I wish you a lot of fun knitting! 😀
素敵な帽子ですね。ちょうど古い編み機を手に入れたところなので、参考になりました。
Thank you, knitting machines are a lot of fun. I wish you a lot of fun on your machine.

The sweater you are wearing, may we please get a how-to video on it.
I have a lot of video's coming up, including knitting multicolor fair isle. So hopefully in the future I can do it!
Thanks a lot for your comprehensive overview. Lubricating yarn is really a individual choice. I prefer it because my old Passap Duo machine runs better with waxed yarn.😊
Same experience here, my Passap runs much better with lubricated yarn 🙌🏻
Where can I get a color changer from... My is broken 🙁

Thanks for helpful content.
Thank you so much for your Super Thanks! I really appreciate it! 🙌🏻
Thank you!❤
You are very welcome!
I've been afraid to use mine because I don't know if I'll be able to get the wax out after knitting .. especially if it's wool that can't be washed at a high temperature. Any recommendations? thank you!
As the wax is on the surface of the yarn just in a very small amount washing with a woolsoap is enough. That's my experience.😊 And yes, working with 100% woolen yarn on the Passap Duo is easier after waxing this yarn. I prefer and love Cool Wool lace (lana grossa) for knitting.
When knitting with coned woolen yarns, they are also lubricated, so it is quite common to do so. I don’t see a problem there. However, if you are uncertain, just play it safe and try a test swatch first with and without wax. Experiment if you see a difference, go from there and see what suits you best. Good luck!
Another GREAT Passap video. You can't make your wonderful videos fast enough. Some people just have a lot of talents and your one of them.
Thank you so much. I wish I could make them faster yes 🤣
Hoi Bas wat een fijne en duidelijke video! Alleen jammer dat het niet in het Nederlands is ,mijn vertaler maakte er een flinke beesten boel van!😂😂 maar het voor doen legt al veel uit! Ga zo door ! Groet Hope
Hoi Hope, dank je wel voor je lieve bericht. Leuk om te lezen. En ja soms maken automatische vertalers er een zooitje van helaas 🤣 Ik wens je heel veel plezier met breien!
Hello Bas, at first, thanks a lot for videos, it helps a lot, but still I couldn't solve sth: I attached ribber bed, and did steps as u showed, untill first time going with ribber across, yarn in my case arent taken by needles from ribber bed, and layed straight, I tried different tensions, but couldnt find way how it works. Could u pls advise me, where problem can lay...I can send u video, if u like. Thank u very much. With regards Emilia
Hello Emilia, I understand it can be very frustrating when things go wrong. It doesn’t sound like a tension issue. First be sure to check that the ribber is attached properly. Second, when wrapping the yarn be sure to wrap the yarn on the main bed needles IN the latch and the ribber needles BELOW the latch. Third, when laying in the yarn in the ribber needles, be sure to check the yarn lies IN the latch. If you are still having issues, don’t forget that there are several Facebook Groups, including about the Knittax knitting machines, where enthousiast are helping each other out. Go check it out. You can also contact me through my website.
So pleased to find your video, I have just done 1 sock.. 1 to go😊.. Your explanation of everything is so much easier to follow than in my book.. Thank you 😊
Thank you very much, it makes me happy to read your comment. I guess your second sock is finished now? Isn't it great to wear the socks you knit yourself. Have fun!
@ZabbezOriginal 2 sock finished 😊
The quality of your videos is excellent. Every instructions is cristal clear, the images are showing perfectly the techniques. Thank you so much 🙏🏼
You are very welcome, it makes me happy to read this.
I am new using a Passap machine and new to machine knitting . Thank you for this excellent video. It helps understanding the instructions I read today.
I am happy to help. Machine knitting can be very intimidating at first, but once you get the hang of it, it is great fun. Enjoy!
you are master in knitting tutorial , thank you
Thank you very much! 😀
Bravo
Thank you!
Thank you! This was super helpful. I just got Passap Duomatic S and I have serviced it and tried to figure out how it works. I'm still missing the edge springs. They seem to be important to make sure the latches always close on the edges.
Cool, you will have a lot of fun from your Passap machine. And the edge springs are there to make sure the edge stitch knits. Other machines use weights to make sure the edge stitches knit. You can do both.
I have just started knitting with the Knittax automatic. And your videos are great for learning. I would love to see some more videos on the Knittax :)
The Knittax Automatic is very cool! Even better than this machine :-) I have plans for a lot more knitting machine video's and hopefully I will also be able to make some additional for the Knittax in the future if I find the time. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for this video! Can you share how to install that silver bracket (already attached to machine) during the installation of the yarn mast? I have a used Passap and we the bracket that holds the tension masts was removed. In this video and your original unboxing, you did not cover the step where you first attached the bracket that holds the tension mask. Would be very helpful if you’re able to share or add in future updates.
If there ever will be a moment I can easily make it part of a video, I will do it! That part is already pre installed out of the box and should only come off when cleaning or refurbishing the machine. For now, the best advice I can give you, is to ask in Passap Facebook groups. Good luck!
...COULD you do a others similar videos?? You could put it in speed up!!! AGAIN thank you
Many more knitting machine video's are to come in the future!
Thank you thank you thank you from Portugal ❤❤❤
You are very welcome!
Thank you, Baz. I can't wait to have more time to work on my twin-bed Singer, which isn't quite as sophsticated as your Passap, but I think I can work round that. I have managed a couple of basic jumpers, but now want to have a go at some colourwork and fisherman rib. I will be having a go at your scarf and hat set.
Great! The Singer double bed machines are awesome too. I also have them. They are the best of both worlds, perfectly in-between the Passap and the Japanese machines. Have fun! 😀👍🏻
