Remove presser foot. Stretch fabric between embroidery
hoops and place under needle. Draw the bobbin thread
up through fabric by holding the upper thread and taking
one stitch at the spot where you wish to begin darning.
Lower presser bar. Start sewing at a medium machine
speed. Move the fabric back and forth with a steady
rhythm to cover the darning area. Then turn the fabric
and sew another layer of stitching at right angles to the
first. Move the fabric fast for long stitches, slowly for
short stitches.
If you wish to darn without using embroidery hoop, leave
the presser foot attached, move feed dog control to the
left, and push down outer ring of presser foot knob,
thereby the pressure on the presser foot is released. Then
proceed as above, stretching fabric tightly between hands.
