Excellent tutorial. Thank you

Thanks for the tutorial! I never realized how easy it was to knit trims

[@galaxythree4653]

🤩 what a great tutorial for some very useful trims. This trim is not only good for knits but other goods as well. If you use several strands of a very fine yarn or thread in one eyelet and make fewer needles in-between the braid area, you would have a nice braid trim for sofa cushions and other places for trim.

I wonder how different the fringe would be if it were knit with several strands of very fine thread like yarns in the same eyelet. You could have a multi colored fringe.

Interesting idea! I currently don't have very thin yarn on hand, but I'm definitely keeping it in mind for future projects and might give it a try when I have the right materials. Thanks for the creative suggestion!

Wow, you are truly a great teacher. You inspire me to try things on the Passap that I would never have attempted. Thank you. One thing, how do I determine how many rows to knit for the width of my scarf? Also, is there a limit to the number of needles out of work? Do I just measure the width of the scarf then measure the fringe, as it is knitting? You mentioned to knit a little more that what is needed, so I guess I can unknit some, if it is too long. The waste yarn makes that possible, am I correct?

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m thrilled to hear that I’ve inspired you to try new things on the Passap-it really means a lot to me! 😊 To ensure the fringe is the right size, make it visually a bit longer than the scarf’s width. You can put a measuring tape between the beds of the machine to get a rough measurement of the fringe length as you knit. When you’re almost finished sewing the fringe, remove the waste yarn, carefully pull the yarn tail to unravel any excess fringe, and sew off the 4 loops left on that side to prevent further unraveling. Regarding your second question, there’s no limit to the number of needles out of work. You can leave more needles OOW (out of work) to make the fringes longer or follow the settings shown in the manual.

Your kind words just made my day! 😊 Thanks! 🙏

hi me again, do you start out doing the racking cast on of two rows, then go directly into the EX settings?

[@ArtOfClay]

Hi! Yes, that's correct. Start by making a racking cast-on for two rows, then adjust the lock settings to EX, and proceed with knitting the fringe.
