Joost De Cock b34a2ee2ed feat: Flat import of markdown repo 
This is a flat (without history) import of (some of) the content
from our markdown module.

We've imported this without history because the repo contains our
blog posts and showcases posts content prior to porting them to strapi.

Since this contains many images, it would balloon the size of this repo
to import the full history.

Instead, please refer to the history of the (archived) markdown repo
at: https://github.com/freesewing/markdown

A coverlock is a type of sewing machine that is dedicated to do a coverlock stitch, or coverlock seam.

A coverlock seam is used for hemming knit garments. It finishes the folded back fabric so it can't ravel and the resulting stitch can stretch along with the fabric.

Coverlocks can be dedicated machines, or they can be integrated in an overlock/serger.
