Stitch Options for Knits
When sewing seams in knit fabrics, it's important to use a stitch that will stretch with your fabric so your seams won't break when you wear your finished garment.
If you don’t own a serger, here are three stitch options for you:
You can use a regular straight stitch and stretch your fabric as you sew.
You can use a tiny zigzag stitch, which can actually resemble a straight stitch from a distance.
You can use a stretch stitch if your sewing machine has this capability.
And remember to test the stitch on a scrap of your fabric first before starting your project.
