Presser foot: Zigzag foot A
This stitch is used to finish a raw edge of synthetics and
other stretch fabrics that tend to pucker.
Sew along the fabric edge leaving an adequate seam
allowance.
After sewing, trim off the seam allowance closer to the
stitches.
This stitch is also excellent for darning and mending
tears.
The zigzag stitch is used on the seam allowance to
prevent fabric from fraying at raw edges.
