Since the seams formed by cover stitch unravel when the
looper thread is pulled out at the end of sewing, secure the
seam end in the following manner.
When sewing through to the edge of fabric, among
the threads coming out of the fabric edge, knot the
needle threads (2 or 3 threads) together first, as shown
on the illustration. Then, tie these threads with the
looper threads.
When sewing is stopped halfway, pull out the needle
threads (2 or 3 threads) on the underside of the fabric and
knot the threads in the same manner as described
above.
Cut extra threads.
Note: Normally, the seams at the start of sewing do
not unravel, but it is safe to secure the seam
end following the same steps as described
when sewing through to the edge of fabric.
