Reinforced Straight Stitch
This stitch is stronger than regular straight
stitch, due to the fact that it is a triple and
elastic stitch. The reinforced straight stitch
can be used for heavy stretch fabrics, for
crotch seams which are subject to consider-
able strain and for topstitching heavy fabrics.
The stitch is sewn with two stitches forward
and one stitch backward, forming a seam
that does not rip easily.
Carefully guide the fabric while sewing as
the fabric moves back and forth.
Three-Step Zigzag Stitch
Three-step zigzag stitch is used to overcast
raw edges. Make sure the needle pierces
the fabric on the left side and overcasts the
edge on the right side.
The stitch can also be used as an elastic
stitch to allow seams to stretch when sew-
ing knit fabrics.
