SEWING THE STITCHES
Zigzag Couching
You can easily sew decorative effects using yarn.
CAUTION
• When using yarn, we recommend selecting
yarn of weight 4 (MEDIUM
yarn is often referred to as worsted weight, 20
knitted stitches per 10cm, or 9-11 wraps per
inch. The diameter of the yarn is
approximately 2-3 mm (1/12-1/8 inch). If the
yarn is extremely thin or thick, has an unusual
shape (flat or furry), or more than 2 yarns, the
best finishing results may not be achieved, or
injuries or damage may result.
Note
• Sew test stitches on the fabric before sewing
on your project.
• We recommend using a stabilizer material
when sewing stretch fabrics, lightweight
fabrics, fabrics with a coarse weave, or fabrics
which are prone to fabric shrinkage.
