Triple Cover Hem - Topstitching An Overlock Seam - ELNA 745 Mode D'emploi

Triple Cover Hem – Topstitching an
Overlock Seam
The Triple Cover Hem flattens the overlock
seam eliminating excess bulk and allows
maximum stretch and comfort. The
topstitching is quick and attractive.
Sew ribbing to the fabric using a 3 Thread
Wide or Safety 4 Thread stitch. Set up the
machine for the Triple Cover Hem. The seam
may be positioned either towards the ribbing
or towards the garment fabric. Topstitch by
allowing the center needle to "stitch in the
ditch". The outer needles will topstitch on the
fabric and on the ribbing in one step.
NOTE: It is acceptable to use the Cover Hem
Wide for topstitching an overlock seam. The
chain looper thread should be tightened to
keep the overlock seam as flat as possible.
When the looper thread is tightened, the fabric
may pucker and the capacity of stretch is
decreased.
