Detailed explanation-1: -Elias Howe patented the first ever lockstitch sewing machine in the world in 1846. His invention helped the mass production of sewing machines and clothing. That in turn revolutionized the sewing industry and freed women from some of the drudgery of daily life at the time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Elias Howe was the inventor of both the lockstitch sewing machine and the zipper. Elias Howe was born in the first years of the Second Industrial Revolution, in Massachusetts, on July 9, 1819.
Detailed explanation-3: -With the family pinched by poverty, his wife sewed for others by hand at home. Watching her sew, Howe visualized ways to mechanize the process.
