Shell Stitch
Use a lightweight fabric such as tricot. Fold and stitch on
the bias. Set the stitch width and length as you desire. You
may need to tighten the top thread slightly. Allow the
needle to just clear the folded edge of the fabric when it
swings off the fabric to the right.
If you sew rows of shell stitches, space the rows at least
1.5 cm (5/8") apart.
You can sew shell stitches in any direction on knits or soft
silky wovens.

Smocking
Sew rows of straight stitches (L 4.5) approximately 1 cm
(3/8") apart, across the area to be smocked. (A looser
needle thread tension will make gathering easier.) Tie the
threads along one edge. Pull the bobbin threads and
distrinute the gathers evenly. Secure the threads at the
ol ll Be Se ed ee har Saat Sel BS
other end.
Reduce the tension and pressure if necessary and sew
smocking stitch between the straight seams. Pull out the
gathering stitches.
