Note: To be sure the needles will not strike the foot, turn the handwhell to "walk" the machine through the first stitch. Narrow the width as needed to avoid breaking needles. • Select stitch #3/green or experiment with similar stitches; stitch the remainder of the seam. • Trim excess fabric from the wrong side of the hem. • Check Feet-ures, Unit A for detailed information on working with Double and Triple needles. Note: This is a good stitch to use when hemming T-shirts and pajamas. You can use other stitches with a double needle for other types of fabrics. • Press and mount the sample.
