What
is
an overlock stitch?
For elastic materials and knit
s,
the
pushbutton
key models
offer
overlock stitches
which
sew
two
fabric layers
together
and serge simul
ta-
neously. They are more elastic than normal
seams, very durable and
quickly
sewn.
Tip:
We
recommend using blind stitch
foot
No. 3 when sewing overlock seams. It guides
particularly well and prevents
the
seam
from
puckering even on broad seams.
