Question

You're repairing an armhole seam in a turtleneck used primarily for skiing. The stitching has come loose because of the extra arm movement. What type of hand stitch do you use?

A. Blind stitch
B. Slipstitch
C. Running stitch
D. Backstitch

Answer 1

I can say that Backstitch would be the most appropriate type of speech for repairing an armhole seam in a turtleneck because this provides much more strength to the area since it overlaps from one stitch to the next. From its term backstitch, it literally stitches in a backward direction. Answer for this would be option D.
