Troubleshooting
Needle not picking up thread
Ensure the thread is correctly threaded through the eye of the needle and that the needle is oriented correctly according to the instructions.
Uneven loops or skipped stitches
Check that the needle is fully inserted into the fabric with each punch. Ensure you are using the appropriate fabric and thread tension as per the instructions.
Difficulty inserting threader
Gently guide the threader into the needle eye. If resistance is met, ensure the needle eye is clear of debris and try a slightly different angle.
