Stocking stitch is a basic knitting pattern where the first row in knit and the second row is purled. These two rows are repeated to make the pattern. The "front" side of the fabric will look like a series of Vs, while the "back" looks like a bunch of bumpy ridges.
The final stitch is often called the lock stitch, and can be made by using the reverse button on the sewing machine. After you come to the end of your work, you do several stitches in reverse over the completed work to lock in the seam.
A reverse stitch control is a feature found on sewing machines that allows the user to sew in the opposite direction. This function is commonly used to reinforce stitches at the beginning and end of seams, preventing them from unraveling. By engaging the reverse stitch control, the machine temporarily shifts the feed dogs to move the fabric backward, creating a secure stitch. This feature is essential for ensuring durability in various sewing projects.
I believe the answer you're looking for is: the Purlstitch.The purl stitch, when looking at the completed piece of knitted fabric, is actually the reverse side of the knit stitch, and is usually considered it's "companion."
Reverse sewing at the beginning or end of a stitch secures the seam, and is a good way to ensure that your stitches won't unravel.

The correct spelling is "Stitch," with a capital "S" since it refers to the character from Disney's "Lilo & Stitch." The name combines "stitch," which is a common word meaning to join or fasten with thread, with a unique character identity.
when you are ending a run of sewing in a straight stitch you use the reverse to "lock" the sewing, so the thread will not pull out as easy, and it is less bulky than hand knotting it. you just hit the reverse for about a 1/4 to 1/2 inch at the end of your seam and maybe do it a couple of times depending on stress of the seam is going to be under in the finish garment.
