Description

Genuine Original Singer Low Shank Zigzag Attachment - Part # 121706

Genuine Original Singer Part - Vintage adjustable zigzag attachment that brings zigzag capabilities to straight-stitch-only, low-shank Singer sewing machines. This essential attachment allows you to create zigzag stitches, finish fabric edges, appliqué, cording, and decorative work on machines that were originally designed for straight stitching only.

Part Number:

  • Singer Part # 121706

What's Included:

  • Zigzag attachment - Complete genuine Singer part # 121706
  • Edge guide - Optional edge guide for accurate positioning

Key Features:

  • Genuine Singer part - Original equipment, not a reproduction
  • Great condition - No rust present, well-preserved vintage attachment
  • Low shank design - Fits straight-stitch-only, low-shank Singer machines
  • Includes edge guide - For accurate lace attachment and trim joining

Compatible Singer Models:

Fits low shank straight stitch Singer models:

  • 101, 15, 66, 99, 128
  • 201
  • 221 Featherweight, 222K Featherweight

How It Works:

Unlike modern zigzag machines where the needle moves side-to-side, this attachment moves the entire fabric and feed dogs side-to-side to create the zigzag pattern. It replaces the standard presser foot and has a small lever (fork arm) at the top that engages with the needle clamp, using the up-and-down motion of the needle bar to drive the side-to-side movement.

What It's Used For:

This attachment brings essential zigzag capabilities to straight-stitch-only machines, opening up a wide range of sewing techniques that would otherwise require a different type of machine.

Primary Applications:

  • Finishing fabric edges - Prevents fraying with zigzag edge finishing
  • Appliqué work - Attach fabric pieces with decorative zigzag stitching
  • Cording - Attach cords and decorative trims
  • Decorative stitching - Create decorative zigzag patterns
  • Satin stitch - Use shorter stitch length for dense satin stitch effect
  • Lace attachment - Use edge guide for accurate lace positioning
  • Trim joining - Precisely attach trims and ribbons

How to Use:

  1. Attach: Remove the standard presser foot and attach the #121706 in its place using the thumbscrew. Ensure the fork arm at the top hooks over the needle clamp
  2. Adjust width: Use the adjusting screw/lever on the attachment to set the desired zigzag width (bight)
  3. Adjust length: Set the stitch length on your sewing machine to control the density of stitches (shorter length creates satin stitch)
  4. Adjust tension: Slightly loosen the upper thread tension from the usual setting
  5. Adjust pressure: Slightly release the presser foot pressure to allow fabric to move freely side-to-side
  6. Sew: Place fabric under the foot and start sewing. Gently guide the fabric in a straight line as the attachment moves the material

Why Choose This Genuine Part:

  • Authentic Singer part - Original equipment, not a reproduction
  • Great condition - No rust, well-preserved vintage attachment
  • Rare and hard to find - Original attachments with box and instructions are increasingly scarce
  • Complete set - Includes attachment, edge guide
