Shortening and hemming knit garments on a regular sewing machine can be a little trickier than woven fabrics but once you know what stitch to use, and maybe even stabilizer, it’s easy to do and easy to get a good looking hem.

This video talks about how to get an even hem, two different helpful stabilizers, how to hem without stabilizers, and what stitch is best for stretchy fabrics.

Please leave any questions in the comments below and I’ll be sure to answer.
