Practical Sewing-Cover stitch
Securing the seam end, cover stitch
After removing your work turn it over to the wrong side.
Secure the seam by pulling the loop (1) towards the left.
If the looper thread is subsequently pulled to the upper side, the
needle thread loops (2) are visible in the stitch formation and can
also be pulled through to the wrong side and knotted.
Note:
The cover stitch formation can only come undone at the seam end.

It is not necessary to secure the seam begin because the first stitch
is automatically knotted by the subsequent stitches.
Unpicking seams
The cover stitch formation (chain formation) can be unpicked from
the seam end by pulling the lopper thread (3).
The needle threads can then be removed from the right side.
