Adjusting Needle-Thread

Tension

Zig-

stitching

requires

less

needle-ttiread tension than straight

stitching.

Make a test sample with the fabric

and thread you plan to use so that
you can adjust the tension properly.

The stitches should be flat against
the fabric without causing the fabric

to pucker.

If the stitches are not flat and the

fabric is puckered, lower the needle"
thread tension by turning the dial to
a lower number.

Adjusting Stitch Length

Any stitch length setting from 1 to 4

will give you an open zig-zag stitch.

The higher the number, the more

open, or farther apart your stitches
will be.

The area between 0 and 1 on the

dial is used for the adjustment of
zig-zag satin stitching, a series of
closely spaced plain zig-zag stitches
that form a smooth, satin-like sur
face. (Refer to page 26 for informa

tion on satin stitching.)
