But I mostly use zigzag. On my mid-2000s era Singer, the three-step zigzag worked best, but my vintage Pfaff makes a better knit hem with just the regular zigzag. I marked the ideal setting with a rhinestone on my stitch selector wheel.<br /><br />I agree with you about knits: not the easiest fabric for beginners to work with, but it's forgiving for fit errors.Juliannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12387022903894939813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-7850692644270677372012-10-12T20:26:58.365-07:002012-10-12T20:26:58.365-07:00Cool shirt!

I've heard of people cutting a strip of interfacing (I've never done it but I guess it would be knit interfacing) and putting it between the layers and twin needling. Using a long stitch length usually helps me.dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17270266160105135365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-46412632878416777132012-10-08T22:21:06.857-07:002012-10-08T22:21:06.857-07:00Have you tried tissue paper under the hem when sew...Have you tried tissue paper under the hem when sewing with the twin needle? It helps me keep the tunneling between the stitches at bay. Steam a seam works too, but won't really stretch. Also, fusible bias stay tape may help, though I haven't tried this.DoubleStitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00016669967371038027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-86721350437771371462012-10-08T22:20:59.078-07:002012-10-08T22:20:59.078-07:00Have you tried tissue paper under the hem when sew...Have you tried tissue paper under the hem when sewing with the twin needle?
