For elastic materials and knits, the hobby 1132 offers an overlock stitch which sews two fabric layers together and overcasts simultaneously. It is more elastic than normal seams, very durable and quickly sewn. Open overlock stitch (only at 1132) With this stitch, thicker materials and fabrics which do not fray too much can be sewn together perfectly. This stitch seams and Ànishes the fabric edges simultaneously. Place the edge of the fabric next to the guide of foot and sew while guiding the fabric edge along the guide. Tip: Make sure that the needle is just off the raw edge of the fabric and not into it, when the needle swings to the right. Closed overlock stitch (only at 1132) The closed overlock stitch is perfect for sewing jersey knits. You can also sew sleeve cuffs and knit collars which are well-sewn and long-lasting. Tip: Ensure that the sleeve cuff is stretched while it is being sewn.
