Troubleshooting

Thread breaking frequently

Ensure you are using the correct needle size (70-90) and that the needle is new and sharp. Check and adjust machine tension settings. Verify the thread is not snagged on the spool or machine.

Skipped stitches

Confirm the use of the recommended needle size and type. Clean the machine's bobbin area and feed dogs. Ensure the thread is properly seated in the tension discs.

Color bleeding after washing

While the thread is washable up to 60°C, test a small, inconspicuous area first if using strong detergents or washing with delicate fabrics. Use mild detergents and cold water for initial washes.

Lack of shine or dull appearance

Ensure the correct side of the thread is facing outwards during stitching if applicable to your machine's setup. Verify that the machine's bobbin tension is not too tight, which can flatten the stitch.
