Etymology of STITCHED

The word "stitched" originated from the Old English word "stician", which meant "to pierce or stab". It is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "stikkōną", which had a similar meaning.

Thus, "stitched" came to refer to the act of sewing or the resulting pattern or line of stitches.
