DON’T CUT IT!

Find the thread end

We love Aurifil thread. It’s made in Italy to very high standards and leaves very little lint behind in your machine. The amount that fits on a bobbin is awesome too! Less bobbin changes = more sewing getting done.
 

When starting a new spool, it’s often difficult to find the thread end. Don’t cut it! Remove the flange or thread base by gently wiggling it. The thread end will be tucked underneath the flange!

I hope you loved this little tip! 🙂
