This stitch is excellent for sewing fabrics that tend to fray 
extensively such as linens and gabardines.
Two rows of zigzag stitches are simultaneously sewn 
over the edge to insure that your seams will not ravel.
Sew while guiding the fabric edges along the guide on 
the foot.

NOTE:
The stitch width cannot be adjusted to less than 4.5 to 
prevent the needle from hitting the wires on the foot.
