One key is to use the right needle - my sewing machine guy has me use serger needles in my regular machine for all those funky knits that swimwear is made out of. You should experiment with different types of needles to see what works with your machine. Using a multi-step zigzag stitch if your machine has one is good too, but not necessary. It is the stitch that takes three small stitches as it makes a zigzag in each direction.Summersethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00364235843222794829noreply@blogger.com
