For keyhole buttonholes, use the eyelet punch to make
a hole in the rounded end of the buttonhole, and then
use the seam ripper to cut open the buttonhole.
1 Eyelet punch
• When using the eyelet punch, place thick paper or
some other protective sheet under the fabric before
punching the hole in the fabric.
CAUTION
• When opening the buttonhole with the seam
ripper, do not place your hands in the cutting
direction, otherwise injuries may result if the
seam ripper slips.
• Do not use the seam ripper in any other way
than how it is intended.
■ Changing the density of the stitching
Adjust the stitch length.
• For details, refer to "Setting the stitch length" in the
"Basic operations" section.
• If the fabric does not feed (for example, if it is too
thick), decrease the density of the stitching.
■ Changing the stitch width
Adjust the stitch width.
• For details, refer to "Setting the stitch width" in the
"Basic operations" section.
Memo
• Before sewing buttonholes, check the stitch
length and width by sewing a trial buttonhole on a
scrap piece of fabric.

When sewing buttonholes on stretch fabrics, use a gimp
thread.
