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

Zig-zag stitch

A zig-zag stitch is used to prevent the SA of the denim from fraying

A zig-zag stitch is useful for when you need to sew a stretchable seam (like when using knits). You can also use it for a decorative effect, or to lock the edge of your fabric.

As most, if not all, sewing machines can sew a zig-zag stitch, it's a popular alternative for when more specialised stitches are not available.

Everyone's favourite encyclopedia has more on the zig-zag stitch: Zigzag stitch on Wikipedia
