This stitch is for sewing a seam with an overcast finish. It is
used when re&king swim wear, ski pants and other garments
which require stretch.
• To sew:
Place raw edge of fabric to the "left" of the needle as shown
Sew in a manner so that the needle pierces the fabric very
close to the outside edge Or place the fabric to allow a 1 6
cm (5/8") seam, then trim seam allowance
Raw or worn edges of older garments can be overcasted to
prevent further raveling
NOTE: Use a #11 blue stretch needle, which effectively
prevents skipped stitching
