💡 Pro Tips for Threading Success

Lighting matters most: Poor lighting causes more threading failures than any other factor. Position yourself near a window or use a bright LED task lamp.
Fresh cuts only: Even slightly frayed thread ends make threading nearly impossible. Cut fresh with sharp scissors every time.
Size matching: Using thread too thick for your needle eye is like trying to fit a rope through a keyhole. Match sizes properly.
Steady hands: Rest your elbows on a table for stability. Take breaks if your hands become shaky from fatigue.
Have a backup plan: Even experts sometimes struggle. Keep a needle threader or try the fold-over method as your backup.
