* Use this stitch to finish the edges, hems,
sleeves and neck opening of lingerie or
nightwear.
Form the shell stitch by sewing over the
folded fabric.
For best results:
1. You may need to tighten the top thread
tension slightly.
2. Allow the needle to just clear the folded
edge of the fabric when it zigzags.
NOTE: If you sew rows of shell stitches,
space the rows 1 /2 inch apart.
Two types of shell stitches are built into your
machine:
Regular shell stitch which produces a
tiny shell hem on lingerie and other
fine garments.
— Two-point shell stitch to be used for
bigger size of shell pattern.
