A More Sustainable Adventure

Introduction to and threading a Singer 328k. First time sewing.

By letter2self on September 3, 2023



The featured Singer 328K is the European version of the Singer 328. There is also a Canadian version (328J) and an Australian version (328P). To my knowledge they are all the same, except the color and obviously the location they were build.

The 328 is a late 1950’s/ early to mid 1960’s sewing machine. This one is dated 1963, without the light switch.
It is an entry-level machine, 40% cheaper than the amazing 401 (according to an article I read).
The 328k has an oscillating hook like the 15 and 66 – models.
Talking about the 666 (and 99): The bobbin the 328 uses is the type 66-bobbin. Needles are the same as the 66 and 15: class 15×1.
It’s all in this video!

I have multiple vids online on Singer sewing machines. Feel free to watch more…
