**************************

A free-arm Featherweight 222 has distinguished, and extra characteristics compared to the original 221 model.  Click here for a side-by-side comparison of the 221 and 222 model machines. 

  • Take note of the Feed Dog Lowering Lever indicated by SEW & DARN.  This enables free-motion embroidery & darning: go from ‘SEW’ing to ‘DARN’ing just by pulling on the lever and lowering it down to the Darn position.  This will lower the feed dogs (teeth-like mechanism) enabling Free-Motion work.

  • The bed removes to reveal the tiniest little free-arm - perfect for tight seams and hard-to-reach places.
