Why is my ELNA Sewing Machine skipping stitches?
- N
  Nicole MartinezAug 17, 2025
  Skipping stitches on your ELNA Sewing Machine can occur due to several reasons. Here's what to check: * The needle might not be inserted correctly; ensure it is properly inserted. * A bent or worn needle can also cause this issue, so replace the needle. * Incorrect threading is a common culprit; rethread the machine. * The needle or thread may not be appropriate for the fabric; use the recommended type. * When sewing stretch fabric, try using a #11 blue tip needle. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the needle bar height, needle to hook timing, or needle to hook clearance may need mechanical adjustment.
