Introduction
The needle on a sewing machine may need to be replaced for a variety of reasons, but the main reason is typically due to damage. Oftentimes, needles break due to user error, including using a fabric that is too thick for that particular needle or threading the needle incorrectly. Regardless of the cause, knowing how to replace a needle is a must for all seamstresses. This guide will provide users with that knowledge, as it relates specifically to the Husqvarna Viking Designer 1 sewing machine.
