Specialty Stitches
Thread the serger for a 3-thread Overlock stitch using the Left Needle.
Use the Jeans Stitch in the Upper Looper.
Turn the Stitch Selection Dial to “D” on the Stitch Display Panel.
Adjust the Stitch Length to 3. (You can shorten the Stitch Length slightly to fill in the
stitch as you serge.)
Attach the Right Hand Seam Guide and adjust it so that the guide is halfway between
the Left Needle and the right edge of the Stitch Finger.
Fold the fabric in half, wrong sides together, to 2” X 6”.
Place the fold under the Presser Foot and against the Right Hand Seam Guide.
Slowly serge the fabric. The Looper threads will extend beyond the fabric on the
right side of the fold.
Pull the fabric flat. If it does not lay flat, move the Right Hand Seam Guide towards
the Left Needle and try again.
Press, trim and mount the sample.
