STRAIGHT STRETCH STITCH:

This stitch may be used on knits and wovens 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. With stretch stitch

control at stretch stitch position, sew in same manner as

for ordinary sewing.

CAUTION - It is difficult to remove this stitch from

fabric. Pre fit garment before using this stitch.

• TOPSTITCHING

Because this stitch is heavier than an ordinary straight

stitch, it is ideal for topstitching, particularly on knits.
