Instruction for the use of stretchy fabrics
You will achieve the best results when working with stretchy fabrics by using an Overlock- sewing machine. The seams will come out very elastic and won’t rip with everyday wear. If you don’t have an Overlock sewing machine available, stitch the seams using a special elastic stitch or a narrowly adjusted zigzag stitch. Please beware that the thread tension should not be too tight. For delicate jersey fabrics use a jersey needle for your sewing machine. Its rounder point won’t damage the fabrics.
