-
Pattern 36 produces a 'satin effect' fill stitch.
-
The first four patterns in the Gradient & Lace category (253-256) are recommended for multicolor gradient.
-
Patterns 257 to 264 provide banded fill patterns that combine with crosshatch parallel fills to create a weave effect for lace designs. Set Spacing for the parallel fill at 2.4mm to combine with Pattern 257, 2.8mm to combine with Pattern 258, and so on.
