3-step Zigzag (Multiple zigzag)
The 3-step zigzag (sometimes called a multiple
zigzag) is used to finish raw seam edges on synthetics
and other fabrics that tend to pucker.
This stitch gives a flatter edge finish than the regular
zigzag and is excellent for darning and mending tears
in fabric.
Place the fabric under the presser foot so the needle
swings off the fabric to the right or trim away any
excess fabric.

This technique produces a beautiful edge on ruffles
and hems. It should only be used for lightweight
fabrics and is commonly used in heirloom sewing.
Decrease stitch width to 3.5 and stitch length to 0.8.
The fabric edge must be clean cut with no unraveling
threads. Lay the fabric edge in the center of the foot.
The zigzag will catch the edge on the left and clear
the raw edge on the right, rolling the fabric.

Pull torn edges together and fuse a piece of interfac-
ing slightly larger than the tear to the wrong side of the
garment.
Decrease stitch length to 0.6 – 0.8.
Begin sewing above the tear. Stitch down the middle,
pulling edges together. Stop sewing just beyond end
of tear. Depending on the tear, you might need to
stitch area 2 or 3 times.
