How to sew
Sewing
• See page 9, ‘"4. Chain off and test sew’k
• For rolled hemming, if a slight tension is applied to the material in the sewing direction, a finer seam
finish can be obtained.
• At the start of sewing, slightly pull the end of the chain off so it will not be entangled in the stitch.
