■ Zigzag stitch
Turn the pattern selection dial to the Zigzag Stitch,
and then start sewing.
We recommend that you sew using the Straight
Stitch at the beginning and end of zigzag stitches.
(This acts as a reinforcement stitch.)
■ Satin stitch
Setting the Zigzag Stitch length in the "F"-"1" range
produces a satin stitch (close zigzag stitch). The
Satin Stitch can be used for making buttonholes and
decorative stitches. Set the pattern selection dial to
the Zigzag Stitch, set the stitch length in the "F"-"1"
range.

Blind hem stitching

Stretch Blind
Hem Stitch
You can use the Blind Hem Stitch to finish the edge of a
project, like the hem of a pair of trousers, without the
stitch showing.
Memo
● When the size of cylindrical pieces is too
small to slide onto the arm or the length is
too short, the fabric will not feed and
desired results may not be achieved.
