the thread in the right place once the thread is inside the wide opening it must pass through the narrow opening 603 the narrow opening is just wide enough to let the thread through a little force will be required to push the thread through the narrow opening must be this narrow to ensure that the thread cannot unintentionally escape the needle hole again there is a nook 503 that catches the thread and prevents it from moving around 0022 fig7 illustrates a prior art spool spools are the devices used to carry thread 0024 fig9 illustrates a spool with two small slits 901 on opposite ends of the spool this allows the thread 903 to be tightly strung across the spool this keeps the thread taut which is ideal for the threading of the new modified needle holes this way the thread is kept taut and it will not move from its current position as it is being kept in place by the two slits this allows a person to easily place the thread into the correct position inside the needle hole whereas two hands would normally be required to keep the thread taut and to control it at the same time now only one hand would be required to hold the spool while the other can control the needle this makes the modified.
