Sewing Overlock stitches For elastic, knits, woven and stretch fabrics, your creative 2124 provides a selection of overlock stitches. These stitches join multiple layers of fabric and overcast them in one operation. These stitches can stretch and are more durable than standard stitches. Tip: Use blind stitch foot No. 3 when sewing overcast seams. This guides the fabric more precisely and prevents tunneling of the seam at wider stitch widths. Adjust the stitch width and guide of the foot to ensure that the right swing of the needle clears the raw edge of the fabric and the pin of the presser foot. Closed overlock stitch - No 7 This stitch is suitable for sewing a hem on your garment. Use foot no. 0 or 3. Fold your fabric 3/8" (1 cm) and stitch the closed overlock on the right side of the folded fabric. When you have finished, cut away the unnecessary fabric. Open overlock stitch - No 15 The overlock stitch works well when joining or edge-finishing fabrics that do not fray excessively. Use presser foot no. 1 or 3. Closed overlock stitch with edge thread - No 22 If you wish to sew a fabric that frays easily, select stitch 22. With this stitch an additional edge thread protects the fabric edge against further fraying. This seam is suitable for woven fabrics. 4:9

Overlock stitches
For elastic, knits, woven and stretch fabrics, your creative 2124
provides a selection of overlock stitches. These stitches join
multiple layers of fabric and overcast them in one operation.
These stitches can stretch and are more durable than standard
stitches.
Tip
: Use blind stitch foot No. 3 when sewing overcast seams. This guides
the fabric more precisely and prevents tunneling of the seam at wider
stitch widths. Adjust the stitch width and guide of the foot to ensure that
the right swing of the needle clears the raw edge of the fabric and the
pin of the presser foot.
Closed overlock stitch – No 7
This stitch is suitable for sewing a hem on your garment. Use foot
no. 0 or 3.
Fold your fabric 3/8” (1 cm) and stitch the closed overlock on
the right side of the folded fabric. When you have finished, cut
away the unnecessary fabric.
Open overlock stitch – No 15
The overlock stitch works well when joining or edge-finishing
fabrics that do not fray excessively. Use presser foot no. 1 or 3.
Closed overlock stitch with edge thread – No 22
If you wish to sew a fabric that frays easily, select stitch 22. With
this stitch an additional edge thread protects the fabric edge
against further fraying. This seam is suitable for woven fabrics.
