4. TWO-IMEEDLE STITCHING
By using two needles at once, you can produce two
parallel, closely spaced, decorative lines of stitching
simultaneously. You can use either one or two colors
of thread; and you can choose either a straight-stitch
or any of the seven stitch patterns built into your ma­
chine.
Some of the attractive designs you can create are
shown on page 28.
1. Fill bobbin with enough thread to complete stitch­
ing. (Since the bobbin cannot be filled after the
two needles are inserted, it is often wise to keep an
extra wound bobbin at hand for replacement.)
2. Close slide plate.
3. Pull out a loop of thread between the needle and
the throat plate.
4. Cut thread 4 inches from needle hole, and un­
thread the machine.
5. Loosen thumb screw on needle clamp and insert
two needles, as illustrated. The two needles must
be the same size. (If the needle you used to fill
the bobbin is the correct size, simply loosen the
thumb screw and insert a second needle into the
clamp from the right.)
Note: When inserting a previously wound bobbin,
follow the instructions on page 11.
1. Place spool of thread on horizontal spool spindle.
Thread as for one-needle stitching except:
® Pass thread betvreen center and back tension
discs.
® Pass thread through eye of right needle.
2. Insert detachable spool pin into hole provided for
it, as shown below.
3. Place spool of thread on vertical spool pin. Thread
as for one-needle stitching except:
® Do not attempt to pass thread through guide
behind the spool pin.
® Pass thread between center and front tension
discs.
® Pass thread through eye of left needle.
