2:8 Utility stitches and practical sewing What is an overlock stitch? For stretch fabrics, the select models offer overlock stitches which sew two fabric layers together and overcast simultaneously. They are more elastic than normal seams, very durable and quickly sewn. Tip: We recommend using blindhem stitch foot No. 3 when sewing overlock seams. It guides particularly well and prevents the seam from puckering even on wide seams. Open overlock stitch With this stitch, thicker fabrics and fabrics which do not fray too much can be sewn together perfectly. TIP: Make sure that the needle sews to the right of the fabric just over the edge and not in it. stitch K 5- Stretch I 5- Stretch I 5- Stretch 3-5 0/3 3-5 0/3 3-5 0/3

Utility stitches and practical sewing
What is an overlock stitch?
For stretch fabrics, the select models
offer overlock stitches which sew two
fabric layers together and overcast
simultaneously. They are more elastic
than normal seams, very durable and
quickly sewn.
Tip:
We recommend using blindhem stitch
foot No. 3 when sewing overlock seams. It
guides particularly well and prevents the
seam from puckering even on wide seams.
Open overlock stitch
With this stitch, thicker fabrics and fabrics
which do not fray too much can be sewn
together perfectly.
TIP:
Make sure that the needle sews to the
right of the fabric just over the edge and not
in it.
