Lingerie
buttonhole
with
gimp
thread
To sew especially durable buttonholes, e.g.
on
sportswear, we recommend using a
gimp
thread.
On
elastic materials
the
gimp
thread
is
parti-
cularly important
to
prevent
the
buttonho
le
from
stretching.
- Lay
the
gi
mp
thread over
the
rear
protru-
sion A and pass
the
thread ends under-
neath
the
presser
foot
towards
the
front.
-
Clamp
the
threads
to
the
left
and
right
of
protrusion
B.
- Slide
the
buttonhole runner
as
far
forwards
as
possible and sew
the
buttonhole
as
described
in
the left-hand
column.
-
Pu
ll
the
loop
of
the
gimp
thread
into the
buttonhole and
cut
the
threads.
TIP:
In
addition
to
traditional buttonholes, you
can also sew
ornamental
buttonholes
as
described
on
page 68.
