STRETCH STITCHES
Stretch stitches are mainly for use on knit, or stretchable
fabrics, but can also be used on ordinary materials.
ADJUSTING STRETCH STITCH BALANCE
Stitch length/super (stretch) stitch control should be at
W mark for most materials. Depending upon the type of
fabric used, you may need to adjust this Control to match
forward stitches of stretch sewing with reverse motion
stitches.
TRIPLE STRAIGHT STITCH
Triple straight stitch is farstronger than ordinary straight
stitch because it locks three times-forwards, backwards
and forwards.
It is particularly suitable for reinforcing the seams of
sportswear in stretch and non-stretch fabrics, and for
curved seams which take a lot of strain.
Use this stitch also to top-stitch round lapels, collars and
cuffs to give a professional finish to your garments.

RIC-RAC STITCH
Ric-rac is a quick method of finishing a raw edge and
providing a decorative top-stitch in one operation.
It is ideal for edging neck-bands, armholes, sleeves and
hems.
