Overlock, coverstitch and finish stretch projects
The bernette 68 Maker Edition combines overlock, coverstitch and chainstitch sewing in a special edition design. Its air-threading looper system, Micro Thread Control and included fabric guides help you prepare and finish garment projects.
Prepare the threading and edge finish
The automatic air threader handles the loopers, while colour-coded paths guide needle threading. Micro Thread Control fine-tunes the thread around the fabric edge as material thickness and cutting width change.
Manage stretch and work around closed items
Adjust differential feed to suit the fabric or create gathers deliberately. The freearm helps with closed projects, and the slide-on table supports larger pieces. The knee lifter keeps your hands available when raising the foot.
