Use this stretch stitch with knitted
fabric and other fabrics that stretch.
Sew as you do with regular straight
stitch seaming. The seam may be
pressed open as with any regular
seam, but will stretch if necessary.
This is also a good stitch to use on
curved seams regardless of the type
of fabric. Any seam that will receive
a great deal of strain when worn
should be sewn with the stretch
stitch. Use in children's shorts and
slacks as well as adult sports clothes.
