☆ As the the needle thread loop is difficult to be formed
depending on the thread used, the looper cannot catch
the needle thread. It can cause skip stitch.
Then thread the needle thread through the needle
thread retainer dice ⑤ . (Fig. 6-3)
With UT device, do not use the needle thread retainer
dice ⑤ becasue it cannot form seams at the beginning of
sewing.
