I know that on my Brother machine, if I don't get the thread in the little hook just above the needle, it will not thread the needle. Ask me how I know this? My needle must also be up as high as it will go. I stop the machine, and hand advance, (toward me only) until the needle won't go any higher. Double check your manual to be sure you are doing right for that machine. I know, I know, but I just recently figured out that I was winding bobbins the wrong way for this machine. We are never too old to learn. :thumbup:
