Definicja i Znaczenie "stab binding"

What is "stab binding"?

Stab binding is a traditional bookbinding method where a book's pages are gathered together and secured by being stitched through the spine with visible thread or cord. The pages are usually arranged in a stack, and the stitching is done along the spine at regular intervals, creating a pattern of stitches. This method often leaves the stitching exposed, which can add a decorative element to the book's appearance. Stab binding is commonly used for art books, portfolios, and other publications where an exposed spine is aesthetically pleasing.
