The yoke faces up when overlocking, so that the upper, more beautiful side of the overlocked seam is visible when I press the seam down. Whether you topstitch the seam up or down is a matter of how you like it. The yoke looks smaller when the seam allowance is pressed up and topstitched above the seam.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;9392&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]Here I press the seam allowances down, as previously explained.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5281&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]I then topstitch with 2 and 8 mm distances from the seam using contrasting coloured thread.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5282&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]This is what the two back pieces with yoke look like.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Close_the_back_seat_seam\"><\/span>5.

To do this, I first pin the crossing point of the yoke seams so that they lie exactly on top of each other. Then I pin the remaining part of the seat seam together, stitch the seam and finish it with an overlock seam.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5284&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]The seam allowance of the back seam is now stretched in the curve by pressing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5285&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]I press this seam allowance over to the left side of the trousers, as it will later be topstitched in this direction.

I therefore place a pad under the material, cover the area with a scrap piece of fabric so as not to damage the trousers, and tap it flat with a hammer.
