Reply To: Skipped stitches when sewing Ponte de Roma fabric

yikes! that is frustrating! Usually with skipped stitches, the culprit is the needle or thread. While you may be using the correct type of needle, such as a stretch needle, maybe the size is incorrect. Example, you’re using an 11 but maybe you need to use a size 14. I’ve seen examples of people having horrible issues with skipped stitches and then it vastly improves with a needle of a different size. Also, you want to make sure you’re using good quality thread. another option is to adjust the stitch length and see if this helps.
