Darning
Tom and worn-out clothes may be easily and quickly
darned with a bit of practice. If you need more sewing
control, you may use a hoop (not supplied), as shown
in the illustration.
RECOMMENDED INITIAL SETTINGS
Pattern: Straight stitch
Needle position: Center
Needle thread tension: Between 2 and 5
Note:
If the darned area is open, such as a hole, baste
a patch of cloth under the hole before darning
the area.
1. Remove presser foot (page 24), lower the feed by
moving the lever to the left (illustration 1) and
lower presser bar.
2. To start darning, make uniform movements to the
front and to the back, over the area to be darned.
Note that the stitch length is being controlled by
your movement of the fabric. Smoother movement
will produce close stitches.
3. Continue darning until all surface is covered with
parallel lines.
