Note from Team NZP

 

Designed specifically for serger sewing, Polyarn has a “woolly-like” texture, resulting in increased stitch coverage! Polyarn is used in upper and lower loopers and is ideal for rolled hems, flatlocking, and chain stitching.

  • Stitch napkin edges with three-thread overlock serger stitch, trimming away 1/8″-1/4″ fabric.

    Thank you for your tutorial for Christmas napkins
    I’ve made them in the past. But your serger method is so much faster. I live it and will make for Christmas gifts.
