STUBBORN NEEDLE CORD

From time to time, circular needle cords can become stiff and rigid.
Here are two easy fixes for this problem.

1) 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.

2) 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.
