bobbin
You can begin sewing immediately without drawing 
up the bobbin thread.
When sewing gathers or darts, you can draw up the 
lower thread by hand so that some thread will be 
left over. Before you draw up the lower thread, put 
the bobbin back in.
1
Remove the bobbin cover, and then 
reinstall the bobbin.
2
Pass the thread along the slit in the 
direction of the arrow, and leave it there 
without cutting it. 
• The bobbin cover should still be removed.

Draw up the lower thread as described in 
the previous steps
