Stitch Formation
The process of making one complete stitch. The eye of the needle carries the top thread through the fabric, as the needle reaches its lowest point and begins to rise, a loop is formed behind the needle. As the needle rises, the point of the hook approaches and grabs the loop off of the needle. The thread is then carried around the bobbin by the hook, twisting it around the bobbin thread. The take up lever then pulls the thread up pulling the stitch tight.
