Hello, Shaffer0106 - You may be hoping that a volunteer answerer for Fixya will see your question and will also have a pattern and instructions for Simplicity 8318, Misses', Men's, and Teen's Kimono Costume. I doubt that will happen. Therefore, I suggest you contact Simplicity directly. The company has a toll free phone number (US and Canada) for asking sewing and pattern questions: 888-588-2700 Monday - Friday 8:45 AM - 4:45 pm (Eastern Time) Or, you can take the pattern instructions and the relevant cut out pattern pieces to a nearby sewing supplies store and ask one of the sales people to help explain the construction directions to you. Best wishes.

Hello, Kathy -Doesn't the tissue pattern for the garment you wish to sew have seam markings on it, indicating the seam allowance? See image 02 here:https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/techniques-for-sewing-clothing-2978471It shows an edge of a pattern piece with the seam allowance printed on it.It has been a long time since have sewn garments, but I recall that unless the pattern indicates otherwise, seams are sewn at 5/8 inches. If the pattern indicates 1 inch seam allowances and no other seam allowance depth, then, a 1 inch seam allowance it is.I do not have Simplicity Pattern #1800 myself. If you do not have the printed sewing instructions for the pattern (where the seam depth may be stated), then you may wish to contact Simplicity Creative Group and ask to purchase replacement instructions for your pattern.This is the US toll free phone number to call:833-201-5260To send an email, this is the link to the web page with a form you can use to fill out to ask about the availability of replacement instructions:https://www.simplicity.com/contactus/?topic=OTHERBest wishes.,

The information I found on your machine indicates it is a serger. A serger's feed dogs should always be active unless your machine also has coverstitch capability. Perhaps you should look through your owner's manual. A sewing machine will sometimes have feed dogs that drop but, AFAIK, sergers don't do that.

It has 3 threads because it is a serger not a sewing machine. https://www.sewingpartsonline.com/instruction-manual-simplicity-sl803.aspx?

More than likely you will need to purchase a duplicate of the pattern in order to get the directions.

You would need to give more info.

Hello, Kaity - In the 90 years through which Simplcity has produced patterns for clothing and other projects, I have found 5 different patterns identified as 8608. There may be more. I have attached the images of the 5 patterns I found, so you can identify the 8608 pattern you are asking about. You may wish to contact the Simplicity company directly and ask if the sewing instructions for "your" pattern are in the company archives and if you can purchase a copy of the instructions. This is the link to the Simplicity Contact Us page: https://www.simplicity.com/contactus Note: Fixya.com is a website intended for asking and answering questions on how to go about repairing things.
