Members Kovac Posted August 5, 2020 Members Report Posted August 5, 2020 Hello there, i have a pfaff 335 and have encountered some issues. The hook grabs the top thread and drags it all around the bobbin casing and then makes a stitch. I made some progress on it, but hoping fore some help Im using a size 100 needle with 92 thread, top and bottom. Adding some pictures below Thanks in advance Quote

Members Kovac Posted August 5, 2020 Author Members Report Posted August 5, 2020 I realised im an idiot and this is ok. Juat never noticed it beforw and it seemed weird. Another question is why does my thread bunch in the beginning and end? I think the extra thread on top is getting caught? Quote
Members jimi Posted August 5, 2020 Members Report Posted August 5, 2020 Do you hold the two threads when doing the first 2 or 3 stitches?? If not, you should. Quote

Members Pintodeluxe Posted August 5, 2020 Members Report Posted August 5, 2020 I'd be using a 120-125 size needle (#19-20) for 92 weight thread. Otherwise, there's too much friction as the thread moves through the eye of the needle. Quote
