stitches flat.
(3) Decorative Flatlocking
• Place the movable upper knife in the nonworking

this stitch.
• Fold fabric wrong sides together.
• Position the fabric so the seam is sewn with part of
the stitch extending off the fabric.
• Pull on opposite sides of the stitch to flatten.
(4) Additional Information About Flatlocking
• The tensions must be correctly adjusted for the
fabric to pull flat.
• The upper looper thread is the prominent thread in
the flatlock stitch. Place a decorative thread in the
upper looper and inconspicuous threads in the
lower looper and needle.
• For a ladder stitch, sew seam with right sides
together. The needle thread will be the prominent
thread that creates the ladder (A).
