The chain stitch is formed using two threads, one thread in the needle and one thread in the chain
looper.
Chain Stitching looks like a straight stitch on the top of the fabric while the chain looper thread
forms a chain on the underside of the fabric. The chain stitch has stretchability that is not found
in the conventional locked straight stitch from a sewing machine. The chain stitch is used to stabi-
lize seams in woven fabrics and where needed in knit fabrics. The chain stitch can also be used for
sewing wide elastic in garments and applying bias tape.
For Chain Stitch:
1. Place the machine in locked position to thread the chain looper.
2. Follow the diagram to thread the chain looper,see page 19. Open side cover of machine to
make sure the thread is through the eye of the chain looper. Trim thread to 4 inches (10cm)
and lay in tray.
3. Follow the guide to thread the chain/cover stitch needle, (C-1, C-2, or C-3). Place needle thread
on top and to the left of presser foot before sewing.
4. Move the lock button release lever to the right.
5. Set stitch length and other machine adjustments(See chart below).
6.
Place the fabric under the needle and turn handwheel toward you two or three stitches in the
fabric. Cut the excess threads and start sewing.
Note: All chain and cover stitches must be started with fabric under the needle.
