try increasing the size of your blanket stitch, loosen the tension a little ( which I always do when using invisible thread) and slow down. These are the steps that work for me.
Are you using regular thread in the bobbin? I always do. Invisible on top, regular cotton or poly in bobbin. Makes a huge difference.
