woven into 3 or 4 ply braids.
* The higher the number, the longer the stitch. The
stitch length is infinitely variable and can be
adjusted from 1 - 5mm, even while sewing. Most
overlock work is done with a basic setting of “ “.
* For rolled edge or narrow edge, it is best to set the
dial at “1 to 1.5".
