Someone requested I show what the 3 step zig zag is. I don't know if that is what it is called but that's what I call it. The left side is the stitched zig zag and the right is regular zig zag. The staggered one sinks nicely into knit or fleece fabrics and is quite stretchy. I did it the widest my Viking Diamond does.

When this stitch first came out it was advertised as a 'stretch' zig zag stitch. It is great on any fabric that has a stretch, it won't break like straight or regular zig zag stitching does and goes with the 'flow'...
