6.20 Sewing basting stitches
When sewing basting stitches, it is recommended to use a fine darning thread. This is easier to remove. With
the Basting Stitch No.21, every fourth stitch is sewn. The longest stitch comes up to 24mm when a stitch
length of 6mm is selected. The recommended stitch length is 3.5–5mm. The Basting Stitch is suitable for
sewing projects where a very long stitch length is required.
