noun
sewing technique: folding fabric past the stitch to cover it
A specialized sewing term. Instead of folding exactly on the stitch line, the fold is placed about 2 mm deeper, and the excess is folded back over the stitch to conceal it.
この縫い方は被せといって、ステッチを隠すのに使います。
This sewing method is called 'kise', and it is used to hide the stitches.
