A rolled hem is a type of hem finish that creates a narrow, rolled edge on fabric, typically used to prevent fraying and provide a clean look. It is often employed on lightweight fabrics like chiffon or silk, where a traditional hem may add bulk. The process involves folding the fabric edge over itself multiple times and stitching it in place, often using a specialized foot on a sewing machine or by hand. Rolled hems are commonly used in garments like scarves, table linens, and other delicate items.
