Stretch Stitches

Triple Seam

This strong durable stitch is recommended where
both elasticity and strength are needed. Because of
its durability, once in place this stitch is not easily
removed. Use it to reinforce areas such as crotch
and armhole seams or to construct items such as
backpacks. This stitch can also be used for
topstitching.
Elna invented this stitch in 1952.
Using a straight stitch (stitch length 4), baste a seam
together. Verify the fit. Reset the machine for triple
seam and sew.

Decorative Stretch Stitches

Choose a decorative stretch stitch for applying a
hem to knit fabrics.
1. Fold and press under hem allowance.
2. Place the fabric underneath the presser foot.
Lower the presser foot. Sew hem.
3. Trim away any excess hem fabric.
