The process of removing a seam typically involves using a seam ripper (or, cautiously, a razor) to carefully cut and remove the stitches.
Here's a breakdown of the common method using a seam ripper, based on the provided text snippets:
- Start with the Seam Ripper: Use a seam ripper to get the first couple of stitches open. This creates an initial gap in the seam.
- Open the Seam: The goal is to get the seam completely open.
- Alternative: Use a Razor (Caution): As the transcript states, you can carefully use a razor to remove stitches, but this requires precision to avoid damaging the fabric. It is often used after initial stitches are removed. This method isn't extensively explained in the given snippets.
Therefore, the primary method involves using a seam ripper to carefully pick out the stitches of the seam. A razor is an alternative, higher risk method.
