Kingfisher Red Wire-Loop Bobbin Threader
A red-handled threader with a fine wire loop for loading a bobbin holder.
Description
Use the loop to retrieve the thread from the far end of the tube when loading a spool. It is particularly useful if the free end keeps curling away from the small opening. Check that the loop fits through the tube with enough room left for the thread.

Fit and buying advice
The red grip helps distinguish it from a plain needle on the bench. If your narrow tube will not accept the loop, compare a dedicated narrow-tube threader such as Stonfo's Elite Size 1.
Questions about this tool
What part passes through the tube?
Feed the wire loop through the tube and use it to draw the thread back through.
Should I use it to clear the hook eye?
A bodkin provides a rigid point for that task. Use this wire loop for loading a bobbin.
Can I use it on a very narrow tube?
Check the opening against both the loop and thread. Choose a more specifically sized tool if they bind.
