Shell Edging with Vari-Overlock Stitch

The Vari-overlock stitch can be used to create a shell edging effect on soft jerseys and fine fabric.

  1. Fit the zigzag foot.
  2. Set the stitch pattern selector knob to H.
  3. Set the required stitch length.
  4. Set the required stitch width.
  5. Fold the edge of the fabric in by about 5 mm. Position the fabric under the presser foot so that the needle goes into the air just past the edge of the fabric on the right-hand side.
