Stubborn Needle Cord
From time to time, circular needle cords can become stiff and rigid. Here are two easy fixes for this problem.
- Try dipping the needle into a cup or bowl of hot water (hot, not luke warm) for about 30 seconds or so. This will soften the cord and make it more pliable.
- You can also wrap a moist paper towel around the cord when storing it in its baggie. (This is why many needle baggies have zip-lock seals). The moist towel will help replenish the moisture which may have been sucked out of the cord. The main reason that cords become stiff is due to a lack of moisture.
