. The
following guide on how to thread and use the Punchcraft embroidery tool
every step you need to know for getting your Punchcraft started.

-
Push the button (on the side of the tool )
onto the first click for threading.(fig 2 )
-

the needle all the way down the barrel of the punch tool.(fig

Pull the threader all the way
back out of the punch tool. Remove yarn from threader.
Put the wire threader through the round side
of the needle.
-
Place the yarn in the threader and pull it
through the eye of the needle. Remove yarn from threader.
Fabric must be drum tight in the hoop. Our
hoops are non-slip. The design is punched on the printed side of the
fabric.
-
The loop side is the finished side.
The little button on the side of the punch
tool (fig 2) will determine the depth
of the stitch.
Practice on the 3rd click after the threading position.
-
The punch tool must go right into the fabric
as far as it will go and then come up and touch the fabric every time
a stitch is made
Please note how to hold the
punch tool. If you are right handed hold the tool as illustrated
with the scoop facing away from the palm of your hand (facing towards
the left).
If you are left handed use the punch tool with the scoop facing
right (the tool will be upside down).
To finish off, hold
the last stitch with your finger. Remove the punch tool from the fabric
and snip off the last stitch
