    The time to do one stitch can save you the time of
    doing another nine stitches

    Besides saving your time, it can save your clothes
    from getting worse than the current state it is in
    e.g., a small rip at the knee can get larger and
    larger if not mended straight away

    There was an article explaining about 'a stitch in
    time saves nine' in Reader's Digest but i couldn't
    remember which issue

    When a seam is starting to come apart, a stitch can prevent it from splitting open, saving nine stitches later.

    A stitch done when it first needs to be done will save you from having to do nine stitches later. It saves you both time and the clothes that needs stitching. It also means that if you tend to a problem right away it will save you a lot of head ache that you will have if you wait.

    Other stitches. You back-stitch one to secure the other nine, so your stitching stays in place.
