Henry begins this episode with the first common mistake embroiderers make that causes thread shredding. He goes over the importance of replacing your needles once they become dull, gives tips for identifying once a needle is worn out, and suggests ways to keep track of the last time you changed out your needles.
For the second mistake embroiderers make that results in thread shredding, Henry discusses the significance of putting your needle into your embroidery machine the correct way. He covers the consequences of a backwards needle, and how to recognize if you’ve put yours in correctly.
While going over the third mistake, he talks about the repercussions of using the wrong-sized needle for the type of project you’re working on, and how you can easily fix the problem to continue with your embroidery.
Then, during the fourth mistake, he covers how improper threading can cause your thread to catch and snag on different parts of your machine. He offers solutions to this problem by giving instructions on how to check your thread path.
Finally, for the fifth mistake, Henry discusses the possibility of more than one of your threads shredding on your embroidery machine. To help you identify and fix this issue, he goes over all the areas of your machine that you should examine to find the culprit.

    Just wanna say thanks for the tips, it helped me recheck my machine, But you can also add the speed your running the design at. I found I had to lower the speed and it cleared up the shredding.
