Origin

Mid 18th century; earliest use found in Allan Ramsay (1684–1758), poet. Either (i) from steek<br>early 19th century; earliest use found in Picture of Newcastle upon Tyne. Apparently reflecting a regional pronunciation of stick, perhaps reinforced by association with steek<br>Middle English (in an earlier sense). Probably an extended use of steek (although this is first attested later), but the semantic development is not entirely clear<br>Middle English; earliest use found in Layamon (fl. 1250), poet. Cognate with Old Frisian steka (West Frisian stekke), Middle Dutch steken (Dutch steken), Old Saxon stekan (Middle Low German steken), Old High German stehhan (Middle High German, German stechen) from a variant (perhaps with a -mutation or an irregular ablaut development) of the Germanic base of stick<br>early 16th century. Either (i) the reflex of an otherwise unattested northern variant of stitch.
