Utility stitches and practical sewing
Overlock stitch
What is an overlock stitch?
For stretch fabrics, your select™ sewing
machine offers overlock stitches which
sew two layers of fabric together and
overcast the edges simultaneously. They
are more elastic than normal seams, very
durable and quickly sewn.
Tip: We recommend using blindhem stitch foot
No. 3 when sewing overlock seams. It guides
particularly well and prevents the seam from
puckering even on wide seams. Also remember
to set the red marker on the foot to the right
position. This to guide the fabric edge.
Open overlock stitch (K)
With this stitch, thicker fabrics and fabrics
which do not fray too much can be sewn
together perfectly.
Tip: Make sure that the needle sews to the
right of the fabric just over the edge and not
in it.
Closed overlock stitch (I)
The closed overlock stitch is perfect for
sewing jersey knits. You can also sew
sleeve cuffs and knit collars which are
well-sewn and long-lasting.
Tip: Ensure that the sleeve cuff is stretched
while it is being sewn.
Remember!
When overlocking, if you select stitch
width other than 5 , make sure the
needle does not strike the bar of presser
foot 3.
