Abstract

A device for feeding and sewing a knitted ribbon to the edge portion of garment parts of a mesh material, to be provided with a U-shaped border trimming. To secure the position of the upper portion of the folded ribbon, a horizontal separating element is provided adjacent the vertical guide web of the presser foot which is associated with a lifting web extending laterally of and spaced apart from the guide web ahead of the needle. In the area closely adjacent the needle, a hold-down adjustable in height is provided between the lifting web and the guide web. The guiding edge and the foot of the hold-down are provided at different levels in order to slightly stretch the material and spread apart the meshes of the border.
