Original Swiss Singer Zig Zag 160991 Attachment Set

Made in Switzerland.


Do you wish that your straight stitch featherweight could make a zig zag stitch? Or that it could make other decorative Zig Zag patterns? That is exactly what this attachment is made to do.


To zig zag is a quick and easy change. Just place the feed dog cover plate over the feed dogs, replace the regular presser foot with this zig zagger, making sure that the fork of driving lever straddles the nub of needle clamp, tighten the extra long attaching screw, put your fabric in place and you are now ready to zig zag. Unscrew the red knob (that says SINGER) to change out to one of the 10 decorative/ pattern cams.


Per Singer “It is so simple to operate that you will be able to create intricate designs and effects after studying these instructions and a little practice.”


This is the model 160991 that comes with 10 decorative/ pattern cams. (The identical model 160990 comes with only 5 cams).


Fits Singer Featherweight 221 and models class 15, class 66, class 201. It also fits many other Singer low shank machines, plus most all low shank vintage straight stitch machines made by other manufacturers.


The zig zagger is in wonderful condition with no wear or corrosion. The attachment's plastic cover/shroud has no cracks or chips.

The plastic case looks great. There is on area on the front of the case that has a line that looks like a crack, but I can not feels it. I believe that it is an internal mark.


This set is complete except for the manual, which is available on the internet (I will include a printed copy and a link for download:
