Twin Needle Sewing - Singer C440 Manual De Instrucciones

TWIN NEEDLE SEWING

Interesting effects can be produced by sewing decorative
stitches using a twin needle. Try using two different colors of
thread for even more variety. Always make a test sample first
to help you determine the best settings for the stitch you are
sewing.
NOTE: The illustration to the right shows an example of the
look of the stitches when sewn with twin needle.
A twin needle is not provided with this machine.
All patterns except No. 11, 16-30 may be sewn with a twin
needle.
