This is a pretty hem finish for lingerie and tricot
fabrics. You can sew shell stitches in any direction
on knits or soft silky wovens.
Use a lightweight fabric. Fold and stitch on the bias.
Allow the needle to just clear the folded edge of the
fabric when it swings off the fabric to the right.
If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at
least 1.5 cm (5/8˝) apart.
For better sewing results, interfacing should be used
on the wrong side of fabric on stretch or
elastic fabrics.
Press auto-lock key while sewing the last pattern, and
machine will stop automatically after the last pattern is
finished.
