RIC-RAC STITCH
The Ric-rac stitch is primarily used for a decorative
topstitch. It is ideal for edging neck-bands, armholes,
sleeves and hems.
When manually adjusted to a very narrow width, it also can
be used for sewing high stress seams.
DOUBLE OVERLOCK STITCH
The Double overlock stitch has three main uses. It is
perfect for attaching flat elastic, for overcasting, and
for seaming and overcasting in one operation. It is
primarily used on slightly stretch fabrics and non-stretch
fabrics such as linen, tweed, and medium to heavy-weight
cotton.
CRISS-CROSS STITCH
Useful for decorative stitching on borders and for use
in heirloom sewing. The Entredeux stitch is most often
sewn with a wing needle to create holes in the stitch
pattern.
Helpful Hint: A slight + adjustment of the tension will
increase the size of the hole when using a wing
needle.
