| Change your width (for zig-zag) and change your stitches per inch for close zig-zag. Say if you have your lenght set for 10 per stitch right now if you set your machine for 12-14 stitches per inch you will get the idea. There is a dial for each setting on my machine, but you should have dials or levers or something to change for your settings. |
