Utility stitches and practical sewing
Closed overlock stitch
The closed overlock stitch is perfect for sewing
jersey knits. You can also sew sleeve cuffs and
knit collars which are well-sewn and long-
lasting.
TIP: Ensure that the sleeve cuff is stretched
while it is being sewn.
Remember!
When overlocking, if you select a needle
position other than center,
and stitch
width other than 5 , make sure the needle
does not strike the bar of sewing foot 3.
Pullover stitch (Model 1540)
This stitch is suitable for open-knit fabrics.
Fashion-knit garment sections can also be
joined effortlessly with this stitch. Make sure
that the material is fed to the right of the
needle, not to the left.
TIP: To prevent the seam from stretching while
sewing, it is advisable to add a woolen thread
under light tension.
