Stitching with specialty threads can form beautiful stitches. These heavy or shiny threads can be used

to enhance the appearance of a stitch and create special effects.

Some specialty threads work well through the needle and chain looper, while others are too heavy to

be threaded through the needle and are for chain looper use only.

Use the "Specialty Thread Guide Chart" (pg. 35) as a guide for the specialty threads. Keep in mind

that the quality of the thread may vary and tension setting will vary from thread to thread. Make a test

sample before starting on the project.

Using Specialty Threads

Lightweight Threads

Medium weight Threads

Heavy weight Threads

Lightweight threads such as rayon machineembroidery thread, lingerie thread, can easily be thread

ed on the Baby Lock. Very fine monofilament threads may need threading assistance of a "Threading

Cradle" (pg. 34) or "Looper Threading Tool" (pg 33)

Medium weight threads, such as topstitching thread, Décor rayon, stretch nylon thread are too bulky

to easily "jetair" through the threading port and looper. By using a "Threading Cradle" (pg.34) or

"Looper Threading Tool" (pg.33), the heavier threads can be threaded easily in the Baby Lock.

Heavy weight threads such as Pearl Crown Rayon, Décor 6, and Candlelight will need extra atten

tion in the chain looper. Directions for bypassing the threading port (pg. 32) may need to be used for

heavy weight thread.

Please follow the Specialty Thread Guide Chart (pg. 35) for special instructions concerning the use of

these threads.
