seam with backstitching.
When you reach the end of the seam, press the reverse
button once.
The machine will sew four reverse stitches, four forward
stitches, and then stop sewing automatically.

This unique stitch is used where an invisible locking stitch
is needed.
Lower the needle close to the front edge of the fabric.
The machine will sew several locking stitches in place and
continue sewing forward.
When you press the reverse button at the end of the
seam, the machine will sew several locking stitches in
place, then stop sewing automatically.
05 Triple stretch stitch
This strong, durable stitch is recommended for areas
where both elasticity and strength are needed to ensure
comfort and durability.
Use it to reinforce areas such as crotch and armhole
seams.
Also use it when constructing items such as backpacks for
extra strength.
06 Stretch stitch
This is a narrow stretch stitch designed to eliminate
puckering on knit fabrics and bias seams, while permitting
the seam to be pressed completely open flat.
