This stitch is used to finish a raw edge on synthetics and
other fabrics that tend to pucker.
Place the fabric to leave a 5/8" (1.6 cm) allowance.
Trim the extra allowance after sewing.
It is also used for mending tears.
This stitch is ideal for 1/4” (0.6 cm) seams on knits or on
medium to heavy weight woven fabrics where you want a
narrow seam. It is also great for sewing spandex swim
wear. Place the fabric to leave a 5/8" (1.6 cm) allowance.
Trim the extra allowance after sewing.
