Unfortunately, searching the serial number isn't turning up any matches for the manual. Is there a trick to it? I'm entering AH824721 as the serial.

To Amazon I go!

You don't need the serial number. Just search for 221 manual.

Here's a site where you can buy one.

And here's one you can download.

I glad for you. My mom has one, but I've never sewed on a featherweight.

Thank you all so much for your help in placing her! Without further ado, here is Miss Anise.

She hasn't been shown the proper lovin' yet, but that will come!

The site says not to put in the letters at the front of the number.

She will indeed be loved. My Nanna can't wait to meet her tomorrow during my birthday party - she loves the name too, since her favorite cookies when she was little were Anise cookies.
