Switch to a smaller, sharper needle like a Microtex 60/8 or 70/10 to pierce between the threads.

When working with this fabric, use a fine universal or microtex needle to avoid snagging the delicate threads of the lace pattern. Because the fabric is non-stretch, ensure your paper patterns are aligned with the grainline before cutting. For seam finishing, consider using a zigzag stitch or a serger with a narrow setting to prevent fraying along the openwork edges. To maintain the quality of the lace, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and lay flat to dry; avoid wringing or twisting the fabric to prevent distorting the intricate design.
