3 BUILT-IN STITCHES
Straight stitching
Straight stitches are used for sewing plain seams.
* Turn the stitch width dial to adjust the needle position.
Setting the dial to “5” selects the left needle position;
setting the dial to “0” selects the right needle position.
Refer to “Stitch width dial” on page 12.
■ Top stitching and stretch materials
You can use a straight stitch for top stitching and
sewing lightweight fabrics.
You can use a triple stretch stitch for sewing stretch
fabrics.
Zigzag stitching
■ Zigzag stitch
Turn the pattern selection dial to the Zigzag Stitch,
and then start sewing.
We recommend that you sew using the Straight
Stitch at the beginning and end of zigzag stitches.
(This acts as a reinforcement stitch.)
■ Satin stitch
Setting the Zigzag Stitch length in the “F”-“1” range
produces a satin stitch (close zigzag stitch). The
Satin Stitch can be used for making buttonholes and
decorative stitches. Set the pattern selection dial to
the Zigzag Stitch, set the stitch length in the “F”-“1”
range, and set the stitch width dial between “0” and
“5”.
Blind hem stitching
You can use the Blind Hem Stitch to finish the edge of a
project, like the hem of a pair of trousers, without the
stitch showing. Blind Hem Stitch: sewing on non-stretch
fabrics. Stretch Blind Hem Stitch: for stretch fabrics.
Memo
● When the size of cylindrical pieces is too
small to slide onto the arm or the length is
too short, the fabric will not feed and
desired results may not be achieved.
