Turn all your tension dials to zero, (take a quick photo of the dials first if you're afraid you'll forget where they were set to) and then slowly pull the threads through. If your knots are tiny enough, the threads should go through the maze fine, although the needle thread usually needs to be cut on each side of the knot and then threaded through. Re-set your tension dials, and, FINGERS CROSSED, you should be good to go! Does that make sense?Sue @ A Colourful Canvashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15509898677660889672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859347726001714274.post-79528255104651713742014-08-13T18:13:40.549-07:002014-08-13T18:13:40.549-07:00Good grief you're awesome.
