NOTE:

When using the straight stitch foot, make sure to set the

stitch selector at 1 {Center needle position). Otherwise

the needle may strike the sewing foot and possibly break.

This strong, durable stitch is recommended where both
elasticity and strength are necessary to ensure comfort
and durability.

Use it to reinforce areas such as crotch and armhole
seams as well as to eliminate puckering on knits and
stretch fabrics. Also use when constructing items requiring
extra strength such as backpacks.
