❓How to tell if you have a low shank machine
Most domestic sewing machines are low shank. But to make sure, it’s easy to measure the length of the shank. To determine your machine’s shank size:
• Lower the presser foot completely flat
• Using a ruler, measure from the base of the foot to the center of the presser foot thumb screw
• If the shank is 075″ or 0.5″ or below, you most likely have a low shank sewing machine
• For shanks measuring 1″ and more, it’s possible a high shank machine
