Setting for Stretch Stitch Pattern

Incorrect

When you are preparing to do pattern stitch­

ing. make a test sampie with the fabric and

thread you plan to use so that you can adjust
the stitch length correctly.

Any sitch length setting from

1

to

4

will give

you an open stitch pattern of whichever de­

corative stitch pattern you select. The higher
the number, the more open, or farther apart,
your stitch will be. The area between

0

and

1

of the selector is used for the fine adjust­

ment of satin stitching (see page 21).

ADJUSTING STITCH LENGTH

For stretch stitch patterns,

stitch length is

controlled with a single setting of the stitch
length selector. Simply rotate it until the co­

loured bar I is under the ▼ symbol above

the dial.

ADJUSTING STITCH BALANCE

When you are using stretch stitch patterns,

you may need to adjust the stifch balance dial

in order to correct the appearance of the
stitch.
Before you move the dial from its neutral po­

sition ( A symbol on dial aligned with line

— on panel), make a test sample. If adjust­

ment is required stitch slowly and move the
dial as illustrated.

• Turn dial

down

to bring stitches of the pat­

terns together (ill.

A).

• Turn dial

up

to separate stitches of the pat­

terns (ill.

B).

Always return the dial to its neutral position
after sewing stretch stitch patterns.
