My Pfaff bobbins don't have a hole. You just wrap them several times. The Janome bobbins have a hole and if you don't put the thread thru the hole they won't wind because of how fast it winds. Do what works best with the bobbins on your machine and don't worry about it.

I just have to ask...When you fill your bobbin, Do you stick the thread in the tiny whole on the top of the bobbin & hold it while it winds ? My shame is I just wrap the thread around the bobbin a bit until I can "take off" with it winding away. Sometimes I do it correctly but rarely. I've always done it that way ! do you share my shame ?

My older machine the thread is through the whole on the top of the bobbin. My Vikings are wrapped since there is not a whole. There is groves on the bobbin that catch the thread.
