So I’m back to working on the Team Zissou uniform after starting it alllllllll the way back in Covid. I got as far as cutting out all the fabric parts for the shirt but then not moving onto actually sewing it all together. Three day monk, three day monk!
After some battles getting the ancient sewing machine working I am now ready to start putting it together.

Just posting this as I spent about 2 hours trying to identify the sewing machine I have access to and trying to find the manual
The below link is a PDF for the sewing machine Singer Merritt 157 Panoramic Sewing Machine. The one I’m using is pink and has the text Panoramic Made in Italy on it and nothing else. There are similar models with the Singer logo on.
The manual images were done by Reddit user ScareMeSometimes so full credit to them for this document. The images were originally saved as JPEG images on imgur – I wanted them in a single document so have created this PDF.
Machine looks like this -:
