Advantages and disadvantages
Just like any other parts, overlock foot has its advantages and disadvantages. First of all it is worth to learn its advantages.
- The edges of the fabric at the end of the work are very accurate and straight. In addition, they do not shrink, which is very important when working with fabrics such as knitwear, tulle or chiffon.
- With such a detail there is an opportunity to get quite high quality finishing stitches.
- As the presser foot has a guide the edge is very straight and beautifully sewn.
- With this foot can perform hemming stitch.
- Blindfolding is done with higher quality.
- Setting overlock foot on the machine is very easy. So even a beginner can cope with such a task.
To the disadvantages of such a device can include a number of points.
- Not all sewing machine models can be equipped with the overlock foot. Therefore, when buying, you should pay attention to the instruction manual. It should tell you if it is possible to install such a piece. If there is no such option, then the seamstress will have to buy an overlock or just buy an adapter.
- When overstitching the edges of knitted fabric, the seams do not always retain their elasticity.
- Both thread size and needle thickness must be carefully selected in order to achieve high quality results. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to achieve good results.
