Use this stretch stitch with knitted fabric
and other fabrics that stretch° Sew as
you do with regular straight stitch
seaming. The seam may be pressed open
as with any regular seam, but will stretch
if necessary.
This is also a good stitch to use on curved
seams regardless of the type of fabric.
Any seam that will receive a great deal of
strain when worn should be sewn with
the stretch stitch. Use in children's shorts
and slacks as well as adult sports clothes,
