The a and b buttonholes are made with normal thread tension. For the b buttonhole, a soft cord is laid into the guide of the presser foot (3 black stripes). For the raised buttonhole the tension of the bobbin thread must be very loose. In order to ascertain the right tension, hold bobbin case suspended by the thread. If the case slips down slightly, the tension is in order. That of the needle thread, however, must be so tight as to allow the bobbin thread to appear on the top side of the fabric. For raised buttonholes use only cotton No. 40, mat, 6 ply as needle thread, whereas the bobbin thread must be a very fine cotton (60/2). In case of coloured work, the coloured 2 ply cotton must be on the bobbin, when making raised buttonholes. 43
