This stitch is for sewing a seam with an overcast finish. It is
used when making swim wear, ski pants and other garments
which require stretch.
• To sew
Place raw edge of fabric to the "left" of the needle as shown.
Sew in a manner so that the needle pierces the fabric very
close to the outside edge. Or place the fabric to allow a
5/8"(1.6 cm) seam, then trim seam allowance.
Raw or worn edges of older garments can be overcasted to
prevent further raveling.

NOTE: 1
Set the stitch width 5.0 to 6.5 when the overedge foot C
is used to prevent needle breakage or damaging the foot.
This stitch is ideal for 1/4"(0.6 cm) seams on knits or on
medium to heavy weight woven fabrics where you want a
narrow seam. It is also great for sewing spandex swim wear.
Place the fabric under the Presser foot [C] so that the
stitches are made over the raw edge.
