Janome MyLock 454D 4 thread differential feed overlocker
Janome MyLock 454D Sailing Line
The MyLock 454D is smoother, quieter and genuinely a pleasure to use, which is exactly what you want from an overlocker. Threading is colour coded with the chart printed inside the front sliding cover, and Janome's easy-threading mechanism takes the usual headache out of the lower looper. The 8-piece feed dog lets fabric glide under the foot, and the textured underside of the presser foot stops slippery layers from wandering.
Use it to give your garments a professional factory finish, tackle stretch knits without puckering, or whip up a T-shirt in an evening. Optional accessories open up a whole range of overlocking techniques when you're ready for them.
