So basically, the higher the nimber you add, the farther apart the columns stitch??? So if you have a fabric for instance that would have a spandex in it, you would increase the number??? Is this a correct perception?? Thanks!

I hope this makes a little sense I might be off a little on some of my explanations but I'm sure someone on the list with more knowledge will chime in and straighten me out!! : ) Ron Vinyard Body Cover / Magic Stitches 1-888-435-0176 541-471-1504 Fax 541-471-0427 420 SW H Street, Grants Pass, OR 97526-2532 info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx[1] www.bodycoverdesign.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darlene Weber" To: "Amaya" Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 7:19 AM Subject: [amayausers] Pull Comp >Can someone explain to me "Pull Comp" a= nd how it relates to your designs??I know this is a stupid question and so= mehow I missed >it at training when I went 2 yrs ago as= I can't find any notes on it in my notebook.
