The term "stitch" originates from the Old English word "sticca," which means a puncture or a pricking. It is related to the Proto-Germanic word "*stikō," meaning to pierce or prick. In the context of sewing, a stitch refers to the loop of thread or yarn that is created when a needle passes through fabric, serving as a fundamental technique in textiles and garment construction. Over time, "stitch" has also evolved to encompass various forms of sewing and embroidery techniques.
