Thank you for this demonstration. I do have one suggestion -- I would have found the examples of the stitches more useful if they had been in a colour different than the fabric. I really couldn't see the differences with the white stitches on white fabric. I know that a person generally does use the same colour thread as fabric for ordinary use, but for a demonstration it would have been easier to see the differences if the thread had been another colour.
Like a few others I have just bought an overlocker, I’m excited and nervous to use it all at the same time. Your video has given me confidence to get going. Thank you.
Thank you for demonstrating your over locker, I have just purchased the same make of machine as yours, I found your video very informative as I don't always find reading a manual is always that good at explaining things, I really purchased the machine to do rolled hems, which you made so simple to do, thank you so much for taking the time to produce this video.
I have an overlocker for years and years. Never really used it properly. This is sooo helpful. Not the same brand but I certainly will study it properly now. Really looking forward to seeing what I can achieve. Thanks so much
Thank you, thank you, thank you - I haven't received my overlock yet but am getting prepared! This video is exactly what I needed to explain the stitches and the setting. AWESOME!
Now that’s what I call an excellent tutorial. After watching many videos as I have my first second hand overlocker and no manual, I watched endless videos and they were useless. Thanks very much for sharing this. Amazing!!!
I have an overlooked I haven't used in years because I never figured out how the stitches actually worked. Thank you for such a clear explanation of the stitches and the settings on the machine. ❤
Thanks Ryan, this is a very helpful and comprehensive tutorial for new overlocker users. I particularly appreciated the way that you took time to explain the different threads and demonstrated the stitches. My daughter and I are looking forward to your next videos. Thank you from Australia 🦘
Just bought my overlocker and this is the best video I have seen. I’m complete novice and Ryan’s video was easy to understand and I now can set it up and understand how it works. Thank you. Brilliant
Me too. I’m autistic so I hope this comment isn’t inappropriate (I’m never sure) but it might be worth mentioning if YOU can’t do something due to your disability that you qualify that. I heard you say “ you disengage that but I’m not going to because it’s so difficult to put back.. or words to that effect and I started to panic I’d bought a rubbish machine but I kept watching and realised it wasn’t the machine per se but how awkward it is to do with just one hand. Ryan… I applaud you. We struggle with 2 and you just get on with it. Good lad. (I’m 67 so I CAN say that). I learned SOOOO much by watching to the end. Thank you so much.
Fabulous tutorial … thank you! Have been slowly demystifying my Overlocker for a while … you’ve given me a huge boost forward in both my comprehension and application … am very much looking forward to further tutorials from you p
I bought an overlocker for Christmas. I have just got it out of the box. The lady in the shop demonstrated it and I have tried to follow the instruction book but it seems very complicated. Now I have seen you use it I will have another go. Thank you Ryan
Your video just came up in my feed this morning and I found your presentation clear and really informative. I am still learning all about the world of overlockers and feel more confident now. Have a great day.
Thank you so much. I'm just getting used to an overlocker, so far I've learned how to thread and use the basic 4 thread stitches. I still get very confused by the settings, making it more narrow or wider and getting the chain to look correct. Mine didn't come with a book so I'm having to use the net to learn. I'm so glad that I found you.
Hi, I am an intermittent machine user. I can go a long time between sewing projects. The overlocker can be intimidating. This was a helpful tutorial and refresher. Thanks so much!
Really great information Thankyou so much, I’ve had a overlocker for at least 8 years & never used it because it just looked too complicated & I hate reading 🤦🏻 on the other hand my sewing machine it’s made it’s money back a thousand times in alterations I can do almost anything on that, 🤔 not so good on stretch material though because obviously when it is stretched after sewing the thread can break 😤
Ryan this video is amazing and incredibly useful. It made me understand so much more the second hand serger that I just bought and was looking at her ever since cause its so intimidating at the beggining. Keep going... thank you!
Ryan thanks for your very comprehensive demo. I have the exact same model which I bought a long tie ago! I have never gotten to grips with it but with your very clear instructions it's coming out tomorrow for a practice session 😊 Keep up the good work and thanks again. Janet.
@@RyanRixSewing Hi Ryan. I got my Janome set up the next day and spent a couple of hours getting to know it. After practicing on spare fabric I am now ready to get started on the alterations I've put off for so long. Thank you again Janet 🤗
My iPad must be reading my mind because I was just about to write a comment on the video I watched yesterday , which was most helpful on how to thread the machine. There was emphasis on the four different colours to follow. It would have been even better if the colours matched the machines colours used to guide with the threading . Looking foreword to see more videos.
I've never actually seen these machines before, so I know nothing about how to use them. Someone recently gave me a used one (with no manual). My friend's son found one online & got it threaded for me, because the instructions are too small for any human to read -or- get badly distorted if enlarged. Frustrating. So I'm here to learn the basics before I begin my first project. Your video was very helpful - Thank you! (May I request a contrast of colors between the thread & material for your future videos?) Evidently my eyes are old and tired, as it's hard to see the stitches in this one. Subscribing because you're a wonderful teacher!
Thanks Ryan, Ive just inherited a very old Singer overlocker and after having it cleaned and serviced Ive got to learn how to use it. Your video was very informative and has given me the confidence to go try it out. Thank you.
Quite interesting. I will always use this video for references. Thanks so much. However I suggest you use a dark fabric with a white thread for contrast. It's difficult seeing the thread. Thanks man
Thank you so much Ryan for this. You have explained everything so clearly and concise. I have had my Janome for 4 years now and still don't really understand the damn thing and I was fearful of it! But I now feel a bit better about it and will give it a go. I think it's a case of practise, practise, practise...
Hello again Ryan, thank you once again. I decided today to have a go on my overlocker - too hot to really do anything else. I felt so much more confident with your lovely video. I now have beautifully overlocked edges on the blouse I am making. You are a great teacher! I wish you lots of love and luck in your future 🙏🙏
Thank you. i am glad i found you. i am a beginner .I bought a second hand serger and my blade Does not cut. I ordered new blades but have not changed them yet
Great demonstration Ryan, so well explained, thank you! I've been thinking of getting an overlocker but really wasn't sure how they work. This helped tremendously 😊
Excellent Video Ryan!! I was Taught to Sew at an early age (Mother was big on us having many strings to our Bows so we were self reliant) So with an Ordinary Sewing Machine I'm well away, but, coming up to 60 now I inherited a Singer Overlocker from my Mother, who recently passed away, and quite Frankly it gave me the Screaming Willies, 🥵 🤯 until i seen this video, now I think I'm in with a chance of actually getting some back burner Projects Done using it (custom Fishing Rod Sleeves, Hammock Underquilt & Topquilt) and also getting them to look like they were not made by a troupe of blind Monkeys would be great, I had better start watching more of your vids & Practising hehe 😀 😀
Omg!!! Thank you!!!! I got a hand-me down Juki serger from my sister and The instructions are old and not easy to follow. I have had so many a-ha moments watching this video.
Wow!!! I have just discovered your video Ryan, I am 65, I don't profess to know it all but have learnt so much about my overlocker from your video - I have the same Janome model so thank you Ryan, keep up the good work 👍👌
I enjoyed and learned from your video... I really liked the video on threading the machine... I was able to thread mine after many hours of struggling... so Thank you...
Thank you I have just bought this machine today and now I can have a play around great video straight to the point in what you are doing Thank very much will looking in again soon see you on instagram. Linda🤗
Thank you so much for this video! I have a crappy serger from Lidl but this is extremely helpful. I will make sure to try the rolled hem soon! Hoping you are doing great with college! Hugs
Excellent video, Ryan, thank you. It's really helpful to see how changing the different settings changes the result. I had an overlocker many moons ago but am thinking of buying another one, your video is going to be so helpful. Thank you :)
Thank you as per usual brilliant and easy to understand. great to see the different stitches it can do. looking forward to more especially collars mine never turn out right yet !! but im not giving up lol. Thank again Ryan.
Awesome video, will checkout your threading video. I recently found a Janome 9200D in a charity shop. They said it was working so I bought it but I didn't have a clue how to test it so it's been in a box for a few months now. it does look a bit intimidating but I'll have a go.
THANK YOU. THIS WAS A BIG HELP. tHE ONLY PROBLEM i HAD WAS THAT MY LEFT NEEDLE THREAD DID NOT CARRY ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO COMPLETE THE FLAT LOCK STITCH. PART OF THE STITCH WAS PERFECT BUT THE FIRST FEW INCHES THE LEFT NEEDLE THREAD DIDN'T LOOP BUT WAS STRAIGHT.
Hi Ryan, thank you so much for this! I’m having some issues with the loops either coming over the edge or under the edge on the same line of stitching and can’t work out what’s causing it. If it was just one I think I just need to adjust one of the looper but as it’s both I’m ranger stumped! Any suggestions?
Hi Ryan, loved this video, I’ve always had problems understanding written instructions, I prefer someone to explaining and show how to work things. I happen to have this same overlocker. So I can use a lot of information, and get more out of it. So thank you 😊
Awesome tutorial Ryan, thank you so much...! I've just been given the same overlocker that you are using, so I guess it's time to learn...! You've just got another subscriber, keep up the good work...😉

I know that a person generally does use the same colour thread as fabric for ordinary use, but for a demonstration it would have been easier to see the differences if the thread had been another colour.
Better yet, 4 different contrasting colors, so you can see all the separate threads.
What a super video, you explained things so well. Thank you for demystifying the flatlock seam...I shall be keeping this to re watch.
Thanks so much for showing the detailes how to do rolled ham . It's hard to understand just by reading.
I’m happy it could help ☺️

Amazing! Yes I’ll definitely do that, thank you for your support!
Thanks. Excellent video, it would be clearer if you use darker thread on light material or visa versa.
I just bought this overlocker, really is scary. Thanks a million for doing this video, I will be rewatching many times .
This is probably the best basic overview of a serger that I've seen so far! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Ryan, I loved your video and the examples you showed. Off to try my rolled hem now!
Thank you Ryan. I am going to buy an overlocker this week, so I know nothing about overlockers. Your video was was great. Phew, lots for me to learn!!
Amazing, I’m so excited for you!! They’re fantastic additions to the sewing room, I’m investing in a coverstitch next!
Nice clear information, thank you. I've just bought a secondhand machine, but am excited to follow your instructions. 😊
Amazing! Thank you
Thank you so much - I’m less scared of my new overlocker now 😍

Thank you Ryan. You have given me confidence to get on and play with my new Janome overlocker
I just got a serger, and I want to learn more so yes more videos please.

That was really helpful and well explained. Thank you.
You’re very welcome!
Great demonstration Ryan, so well explained, thank you! I've been thinking of getting an overlocker but really wasn't sure how they work. This helped tremendously 😊
Thank you so much! They are worth it, finishing fabrics and did knits. They aren’t as scary as people make out either!
Thank you for sharing. This video was very helpful
