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.
• Starting
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 5/8"
(1.6 cm) seam, then trim seam allowance.
Raw or worn edges of older garments can be overcasted to
prevent further raveling.
