STITCH VARIATIONS:
Chain stitch
Chain stitch is stretchier than the straight stitch, but it is not actually elastic. That’s why it is great for fabrics that tend to wrinkle. 2-thread chain stitch is great for strengthening other hems. Moreover, this stitch is perfect for temporary joining two fabrics, because it is easily unseamable.
For striking decorative effect use decorative thread (multicoloured, metallic, silk/embroidery).
2,8 mm and 5,6 mm coverstitch
Coverstitches are used for especially stretchy fabrics (sportswear, undergarments, jumpers) and as a decorative element. Coverstitch is elastic and doesn’t tear when the fabric is stretched.
3-needle coverstitch
This is the most elastic and strongest stitch of its type. It also can be used as a decorative element.
For striking decorative effect use decorative thread (multicoloured, metallic, silk/embroidery).
