Smocking is a delicate decorative treatment used on 

children’s clothes or women’s blouses.

Use a soft and lightweight fabric such as batiste, gingham 

or challis.

Cut the fabric three times wider than the projected width. 

Select straight stitch, set stitch length at “5.0” and loosen 

the thread tension.

Sew rows of straight stitches 1 cm (3/8˝) apart across the 

area to be smocked. Knot the threads along one edge. 

From the other edge, pull the bobbin threads to distribute 

the gathers evenly.

Set the thread tension to 1–4 and select a smocking 

stitch pattern.

Sew the smocking stitch pattern between the rows of 

straight stitches.

Remove the straight stitches by pulling them out.
