DARNING

to darn clothing and household linens effort-
lessly and quickly.

Set Stitch Width Selector on O setting and
adjust Stitch Length Lever for desired
stitch length (usually about 10 or 12).

but not too light to prevent work from
feeding smoothly.

alternately letting fabric feed normally
away from you and then gently pulling
fabric toward you. Continue this forward
and backward motion until area to be
darned is filled with parallel lines of
stitching.

cover area with crosswise lines of stitching•

underlay in place.
