LADDER STITCH The Ladder stitch is primarily used for drawn thread hemstitching. It can also be used for sewing over thin tape in a same or contrasting color. Place the stitch in the center and a special effect will be obtained for decoration. Another use for the ladder stitch is couching over narrow ribbon, yarn or elastic. For drawn thread work, choose a coarse linen type fabric. After sewing, draw the thread out within the ladder for an open airy appearance. DOUBLE OVERLOCK STITCH The Double overlock stitch has three main uses. It is perfect for attaching flat elastic when making or repairing lingerie, for overcasting and for seaming and overcasting in one operation. It is primarily used on fabrics with slight stretch and nonstretch fabrics such as linen, tweed, and medium to heavyweight cotton. CRISS-CROSS STITCH Use to sew and finish stretch fabrics or for decoration, especially for borders. CROSSED STITCH Use to sew and finish elastic fabrics or for decoration of borders. 54
