. The principle of a chain stitch is weaving two so called endless threads, upper
thread Ê Ê Ê Ê Ê and lower thread Ë Ë Ë Ë Ë , that enables sewing applications without the necessity to refill the supply of
lower thread – as it is usual when sewing lockstitches.

On a regular basis, gimp is inserted into the face side of the work piece (on the seam side – bottom side -
of the work piece when sewing onto the machine).
Gimp - creates plastic look of a buttonhole and together with a bottom thread
decorative stitch provides the shape and firmness of a buttonhole.
Decorative stitch – creates plastic shape nearer the cut. The upper thread
makes a covering stitching on the upper side of the fabric.
