Stretch Stitch

This stitch is a narrow stretch stitch designed to

eliminate puckering on knit fabrics and bias seams,

while permitting the seam to be pressed completely flat.

The stitch can also be used to simultaneously seam and

overcast when sewing on tricot and chiffons for a

narrow, almost invisible seam or seam finish.

Only use the straight stitch foot when sewing
