Darning fine socks Model 707 only Small darning foot Needle: 80-70 Thread: 50 Darning fine socks (also sleeves) Zigzag: Stitch length: 0 Automatic: straight stitch Needle position: centre Drop feed control: lowered Place the darning ring on the free arm (stud of its shank in hole on right of cover plate), then pull work over ring (not ring over the work) stretch it to its maximum and insert the spring. Remembering the following points: After sliding the sock over the ring stretch it to its maximum and insert the spring clip so that the area to be darned is in the centre. It is obvious here that we do the 1st stitch run sideways and the 2nd run lengthways as we cannot turn the frame to another angle. Wrong Correct With the right hand keep the area of the hole taut over the hoop. Thumb on extreme point of free arm.
