NOTE:

When using the straight stitch foot, make sure to set the stitch selector at 1 (Center needle position). Otherwise the needle may strike the sewing foot and possibly break.

This strong, durable stitch is recommended where both elasticity and strength are necessary to ensure comfort and durability.

Use it to reinforce areas such as crotch and armhole seams as well as to eliminate puckering on knits and stretch fabrics. Also use when constructing items requiring extra strength such as backpacks.
