Overcasting without a serger Serging Neatening edges For elastic and stretch materials Creates a flat; elastic seam For 5.5 mm and 9 mm machines
Overlock Foot #2 is ideal for producing serged seams and hems. It is especially well suited for neatening simple seams.
The stitches are formed over the pin on the inside edge of the foot; giving them an additional amount of thread. This prevents the fabric from bunching up and produces a flat; elastic seam. The Overlock foot can also be used to sew high quality hems; waistbands and overlock seams on knit fabrics.
