"So this final stitch that I'm going to tell you about is called the baseball stitch, and it's going to be very reminiscent to what you're used to, as far as when you look at a baseball.

Okay, I'm going in the middle, and then I'm going up an eighth of an inch on one side. In the middle, up in the middle, and then we're going to move up one-eighth of an inch, and then go back to that spot where we came in, in the middle. So your needle is facing down, and then you're going to go up on the other side at the same; and then go back down to where you came; move up an eighth of an inch. Then you're going, once again, up an eighth of an inch. And then up an eighth of an inch. Up an eighth of an inch or this is, so you can see that familiar type baseball stitch.
