Want to do "narrow-hemming"? Your Kenmore special at-
tachments (found in your Accessories & Buttonhoier box) will
help you develop these talents. You'll want to meet m and try
all these aids. But first, we suggest, you get acquainted with
your "adjustable holder" (at left).

Your regular presser foot is replaced
with the adjustable holder for the fol-
lowing operations. You'll need to ad-
just the attachment for correct stitching
position.
SUGGESTIONS FOR USING THESE
ATTACHMENTS
When replacing the regular presser foot with one of these new sewing
aids, be sure that the presser bar is up and the needle is at its highest
position. After you have threaded the machine correctly, turn the hand
wheel to bring up the bobbin thread. Draw both threads under the
sewing aid and to the back of the machine to avoid tangles, It's a good
idea to test stitching first on a scrap of fabric being used.

FORM AND STITCH IN ONE OPERATION
Attach the Narrow Hemmer to the adjustable holder. Set
your machine for any stitch you want to use.
Make sure that edge of the fabric is cut straight. Turn a tiny double
hem (% tnch) along edge for about two inches. Place end of this
hem under Narrow Hemmer. Hold thread taut while stitching
along inside edge of hem. Feed fabric gradually into "scroll" m
hemmer, guiding edge of fabric as shown.
