STRAIGHT STITCH While ‘2” or “3” on the dial gives a suitable stitch length for ordinary purposes, the stitch length varies with the weight of fabric, thickness of thread and pur poses, the stitch length varies with the weight of fabric, thickness of thread and purpose of sewing. Generally speaking, the finer the fabric, the finer the thread and shorter the sttch length; the heavier the fabric, the thicker the thread and longer the stitch length.

THREE STEP ZIG-ZAG The three step zig-zag stitch has a wide range of sewing applications, such as patching, darning, repairing tears, mending, sewing on elastic and lace, oversew ing edges etc. on a wide range of fabrics. The illustration shows patching, where the stitches are to the edge of the patch and a tear, where the stitches go firstly over the centre of the tear and then to either side but overlapping slighly on the first row.
4 OVERCASTING EDGES For thicker fabrics Both these stitches are designed to overlock the edge of a fabric. When the needle is at its extreme right position, aflow it to just pass over or just pierce the edge of the fabric according to the effect you require. Using the overcasting foot will prevent puckering of thin fabrics.
STRAIGHT STRETCH STITCH The straight stretch sews two stitches forward and one stitch backwards, thereby giving “triple” strength. Use it for stretch fabrics and for areas of “stress” where a strong stitch is required.
