2-Thread Chainstitch
The 2-Thread Chainstitch looks like a straight stitch on the right side of the fabric, and on the wrong side it
forms a chain. With a decorative thread in the chain looper and the needle, the chainstitch looks more
distinctive and is more prominent. With such a chain looper/needle thread combination many creative
possibilities are given. Due to the loop structure of the stitch, the seam can be undone simply by pulling the
chain looper thread.
