Wendy - however you do hitches, it would do well to lengthen your bobbins with the help of a pin because it is always kinder to the thread. I have the nasty habit of using my fingers and somehow, unless the thread is of an excellent quality I always tend to spoil it quite a bit. Karen in Malta

I am using my SMP bobbin winder for winding the bobbins so will have a look which way they are wound I presumed it is the right way. It is the first time I have heard of left or right hand hitches so another thing for me to look at. It is so frustrating when using thin thread and then having to undo to lengthen the thread as I have to use a pin to separate the thread and I have had an occasion on the piece I am working on that the thread has broken later on down the lace.
