OVERCASTING
EDGES
For
thicker
fabrics
Both
these
stitches
are
designed
to
overlock
the
edge
of
a
fabric.
When
the
needle
is
at
its
extreme
right
position,
allow
it
to
just
pass
over
or
just
pierce
the
edge
of
the
fabric
according
to
the
effect
you
require.
Using
the
overcasting
foot
will
prevent
puckering
of
thin
fabrics.
