Reduce the upper thread tension (see page 22) so that the lower
thread is loose on the back of the fabric and is looped by the upper
thread.
− Sew one or more rows of stitches. Do not cut the threads off right
at the edge of the fabric but leave a length of about 10 centimetres
on the ends.
− At the start of each row, knot the upper and lower thread.
− Hold on to the fabric on the side with the knots and, on the other
side, pull one or more lower threads taut at the same time. Now
push the fabric together on the lower thread. Once the fabric has
been gathered to the desired width, knot the upper and lower
threads of the second side.
− Make sure the gathering is even.
− Sew the gathers in place with one or more rows of straight stitches.
The diamond stitch or smocking stitch can also be used for this.
