The left stopper, sometimes called a guide finger or pin, ensures that the needle wraps the thread around the very edge of the fabric. This process creates a professional, neatly bound edge that prevents the material from fraying. The stopper works by:
- Guiding the fabric: You align the raw edge of your fabric with the stopper on the foot. This prevents you from sewing too far in from the edge.
- Creating the overlock loop: As the needle moves, the stopper bar or pin provides a surface for the thread to wrap around, forming the characteristic overlock loop. The thread wraps around the edge of the fabric before the needle makes the next stitch.
- Maintaining stitch consistency: By keeping the needle positioned at the correct distance from the fabric’s edge, the stopper helps you maintain uniform stitch width for a clean and even seam finish.
Compatibility and usage
- Included on overlock feet: This type of stopper is most commonly found on specialized overlock presser feet, which can be used on both dedicated sergers (overlock machines) and standard sewing machines with an overlock or zigzag stitch function.
- Manufacturer-specific: Specific part numbers, such as “211227 Stopper” for a Pegasus machine, indicate that these parts are often designed for particular models or brands of industrial overlockers.
- A valuable tool for beginners: For those new to using a serger or an overlock stitch, using a presser foot with a guide finger is an easier way to consistently finish seams without the fabric moving out of place.
