Stem stitch, outline stitch and wheat stitch are stitches with very little stretch, and as such, are perfect for using as the first row on the necklines of bishop style garments. Use a long piece of thread to try to avoid ending off and joining on in the center of the row, as this will often show in your work as an uneven stitch. Make a habit of regularly holding your fabric up and letting the needle dangle down freely, to untwist the thread, as you stitch. |
