The process of sewing or even simple sewing on buttons is impossible without threading a needle. It is quite problematic to do this, since the needle eye is small.
In addition, the end of the thread, no matter how smoothly it is cut off, will still unravel a little, which will create certain problems when threading. Also, do not forget that the thread is relatively soft and it is often impossible to straighten it enough for easy threading.
Additional problems may arise in people with low vision. In some cases, they may not see either the eyelet or the end of the thread at all. There are special devices for threading a needle, but what if they are not at hand? The article discusses an easy way to thread a needle with a large and small eye.

General information
Big eye needle
Depending on the purpose, the needles can have different thicknesses and different eye sizes.
Small eye needle
Regardless of the size of the ear, the sequence of actions will be the same. This is the main advantage of the described threading method.
Step #1 Preparing the Filament
Thread start position
The thread should be placed in the left hand, to fit across the palm of your hand.
Action #2 Preparing the needle
Initial needle position
The needle is taken in the right hand and placed on the thread in such a way that so that the thread passes under the middle of the eyelet.
Action #3 Threading
The direction of movement of the needle when threading
Next, the needle should begin to quickly move up and down in the direction of the length of the thread with an amplitude of 1-2 cm. At the same time, it should be pressed a little against the palm of your hand.
After a while, the thread will wrap around the needle and itself will fall into the eye, forming a loop in it. As soon as this happens, the up and down movements should be stopped.
The result of the work - a loop is threaded into the eye of the needle
Next, you just need to stretch one of the ends of the loop, and the thread will be threaded into the needle.

The initial position of the thread with the needle
The process is completely similar to the one discussed earlier. The size of the ear does not affect the result.
Loop after threading
Then it follows, in the same way as in the previous case, to stretch the thread, holding the resulting loop.
