  Sarah FoxAug 13, 2025
  If the top thread of your IKEA Sewing Machine breaks, there could be several reasons. It might be threaded incorrectly; in that case, re-thread the machine and the needle. The tension could be too tight, so try reducing it. The thread might be unsuitable for the needle; try a different thread. The needle could be fitted incorrectly; remove and refit it. The thread might be stuck on the spool pins; remove the spool, turn it around so the thread comes from the back, and use the felt pads. Finally, the needle itself might be damaged; in that case, fit a new needle.
