Instructions for the use of stretchable fabrics
Using an overlock machine will produce the best results with stretchable fabric. Overlocked seams stretch, so that they don’t rip when wearing. If you are not able to use an overlock machine, stitch the seams with a special elastic thread or a narrow zigzag stitch. The thread tension should not be too tight. Working with knits requires a ballpoint needle for the sewing machine. Its tip won’t damage the fabric.
