This
stitch
may
be
used
on
knits
and
woven
fabrics,
in
areas
of
stress
as
a
reinforcement
stitch.
It
is
excellent
for
curved
seams
such
as
armholes
and
crotch
seams.
For
active
wear
such
as
ski
pants
and
girdle
fabrics
which
endure
a
lot
of
stress
in
bending
and
stretching,
this
stitch
may
be
used
for
seaming
throughout
the
garment.
Caution:
It
is
difficult
to

Topstitching
(Stretch
Stitches)
Because
this
stitch
is
heavier
than
an
ordinary
straight
stitch,
it
is
ideal
for
topstitching,
particularly
on
knits.
PROCEDURE:
*
The
elastic
triple
straight
stitch
is
used
when
a
straight
line
of
stitching
is
desired
so
that
seams
may
be
pressed
open
(slacks
for
example).
This
stitch
is
especially
useful
where
the
tiny
zigzag
seam
will
not
hold
its
shape
and
the
straight
stitch
will
break.
*
Apply
this
stitch
to
areas
of
stress
on
both
wovens
and
knits
(crotch
seam
and
under
arm
for
example).
*
Use
this
stitch
for
rightly
fitted
garments
that
need
a
lot
of
stretch,
such
as
ski
pants,
girdles
and
bathing
suits.
