7.4 Changing the thread
Tying on threads is often used for changing needle thread or looper thread. (see page96)
Friction can be reduced by keeping the knotted area as tight as possible.
NOTICE
Pulling a thread tie through the needle eye
The needle can be bent. A bent needle affects the stitch formation.
> Cut the tie in front of the needle eye and thread the needle individually.
Knotting thick thread
> Form a loop with the thin thread.
> Insert the thick thread end from below into the thin thread loop.
> Pass the thick thread to the back around both thin threads and guide it through the loop from above.
> Hold both thread ends and pull them apart.
