The built-in buttonhole stitch makes it possible to sew buttonholes quickly and
easily without turning the material.

Raise the foot and the needle to its highest position. Snap on the buttonhole
foot for sewing buttonholes.
Mark the location and the desired length of buttonhole on the fabric using a pencil
or tailor’s chalk.
Note: * To find the most suitable stitch length, it is better
to sew a sample buttonhole on a piece of scrap
fabric.
* When sewing very fine fabrics and synthetics, place
a piece of stabilizer under the fabric to prevent
distortion.
* Adjust the forward stitch lenght within the area of
the O mark on stitch length dial.
