RIC-RAC STITCH
Ric-rac is primarily used for a decorative top-stitch. 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 at 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.
ENTREDEUX STITCH
Useful for decorative stitching on borders and for use in
heirloom sewing. The Entredeux stitch is most often sewn with
a Wing Needle (SINGER Style 2040) to create holes in the
stitch pattern.
CRISS-CROSS STITCH
Used primarily for decorative machine stitching.
Helpful Hint: A slight + adjustment of the tension will
increase the size of the hole when using a Wing Needle.
