How to Sew an Overlook Blind Hem

• The excess fabric is trimmed and the hem is sewn

and the raw edges are overlooked in one operation.

• The overlook blind hem is best suited for sewing

knit wear. It provides a durable finish that is almost

invisible.

•

Remove the left needle and adjust machine for a

narrow 3-thread overlook stitch.

Note; The three-thread flatlock stitch can also be

used.

• Set the stitch length dial at 4.

• Fold the hem to the wrong side of the fabric, then

back to the right side with 6mm (1/4") beyond the

fold.

•

Stitch on the extended hem edge, allowing the

machine needle to barely catch the edge of the fold.

How to Sew Pin Tucks

• Sew decorative pin tucks on the fabric before cutting

out the garment.

• Remove the left needle and adjust machine for a

narrow 3-thread overlook stitch.

Note; The rolled hem stitch can also be used for

this technique.

• Place the movable upper knife in the nonworking

position (page 25).

• Mark the fabric with the desired number of pin tucks

using a water soluble fabric marker.
