Two-Thread Overedge (narrow)
This stitch is used as a lightweight seam finish or a lightweight seam. When creating a
seam finish, less thread is used and the thread does not imprint on the right side of the
fabric when pressed. The stitch can also used for seaming. The stitch creates less
bulky seams, which is ideal for sheer or lace fabrics. The Two-Thread Overlock stitch
requires the lower looper thread and one overlock needle thread. There are 2 different
ways to set up for a Two-Thread Overlock stitch. For a more narrow stitch (4.0) select
the right overedge needle and for a wider stitch (6.0) the left overedge needle is used.
