This stitch is for sewing a seam with an overcast finish.
It is used when making swim wear, ski pants and other
garments which require stretch.
To sew:
Place raw edges 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 5/8" (1.6 cm) seam, then trim the seam
allowance. Raw or worn edges of older garments can be
overcast to prevent further raveling.
