This class is aimed as an introduction to the use of your Overlocker. We will cover the basics of machine maintenance, how to thread the machine correctly using two methods, and how to set the tension. We will then look at what else your Overlocker can do: the differential feed, what it is and how to make best use of it and stitch length and width. Dependant on time a few more techniques may be covered, eg: rolled hems and overlocking around corners.
