Darning
with
elastic stitch
Program
03
The
elastic
stitch
is
very
suitable
for
repairing
holes,
tears
and
damaged
areas.
Depending
on the
size
of the
damaged
area,
sew
over
this
area
with
rows
of
elastic
stitches
until
it
is
well
covered.When
doing
so,
make
sure
that
the
stitch
rows
overlap
each
other.
The
best
way
to
darn
larger
holes
is
to
patch,
by
covering the
damaged
area
with
a
piece
of
new
material
of
a
matching
color.
•
Cut
a
piece
of fabric
that
is
bigger
than
the
damaged
area.
•
Enforce
the
wrong
side
of
the
patch
with
iron-
on
stabilizer.
When
mending
tears,
frayed
edges
or
small
holes,
it
is advisable
to lay
a
piece
of
fabric
of
the
same
color
which
is
slightly
larger
than
the
damaged
area
on
the
wrong
side
of the
material.
This
piece
of
fabric
strengthens
the
material
and
guarantees
a
perfect darn.
Overstitch
the
damaged
area
as described
above
and
cut
back
the
piece
of
fabric
on
the
wrong
side
as
far as
possible.
•
Baste
the
piece
of
new
material
onto
the
damaged area.
•
Overstitch
its edges
with
elastic
stitches.
• Now
cut
back
the
damaged
material
up
to the
seam
on
the
wrong
side.
TIP:
In
order
to
turn
at
the
corners
more
easily,
use
the
“needle
down”
function.
