STRAIGHT AND ZIGZAG STITCHING / COSTURA RECTA Y EN ZIG-ZAG

———————————————————————————————

We recommend that you sew using the Straight Stitch at the beginning and end of zigzag stitches. (This acts as a reinforcement stitch.)

Recomendamos la costura con puntada recta al principio y al final de la costura en zig-zag.

(Esta costura actúa como costura reforzada).

■Satin Stitch / Puntada para satén

Setting the Zigzag Stitch length in the “F” range produces a satin stitch (close zigzag stitch). The Satin Stitch can be used for making buttonholes and decorative stitches. Set the pattern selection dial to the Zigzag Stitch, set the stitch length in the “F” range, and set the stitch width dial between 0 and 5.

El ajuste de la longitud de la puntada en zig-zag en el intervalo “F” produce una puntada para satén (puntada en zig-zag pequeña). La costura para satén se puede utilizar para realizar ojales y para costura decorativa. Coloque el selector de puntadas en la puntada en zig-zag, ajuste la longitud de puntada en el intervalo “F” y ajuste el control de anchura de puntada entre 0 y 5.
