Braiding Ruffier • Introduce a soft cord in the guide hole of the zigzag embroidering foot, which is marked by one red line on its shank, and stitch or embroider over with zigzag stitches. Use mercerised thread no. 50/2 or 60/2. A great variety of effects can be obtained with this type of stitch. - Colour thread, coulaured cord, or a number of adjacent seams a.s.o. will still enhance the effect. Light, soft material such as Batiste, Georgette, Charmeuse a. s. o. may be very attractively ruffled or shirred, using the embroidering foot and working with stitch length 4. When ruffling rather stiff material such as Poplin, Reps, or Wool a. s. o., a pearl yarn no. 8 is introduced into the guide hole of the embroidery foot and stitched onto the undersite of the fabric, sewing a zigzag stitch of 1.5, with a stitch length of 1.5 to 2. At.a distance of 5/64" a second row is sewn with both sides of the crochet (or pearl) yarn shoved together to a uniform ruffle. - If the ruffled part is combined with a straight one, this seam should be sewn in between the two ruffled rows. k10. 40 Jdr 39
