Both posts are good advice.....Tina's question is very important. Is the whole
design and lettering sewing from bottom up and center out?
The cap needs to hooped as tight as you can get it and lay as flat as possible
on the sewing arm while sewing.
In a case such as this...the presser foot is being forced to ride the steep
incline of the cap just above the bill and is sliding down this incline and
wedging itself against the back side of the needle which starts the breaking
process. Check the clearance of the presser foot to the needle and make sure
there is clearance..aprox 1/8 to around 3/16 inches is sufficient. If it is
bent, you can use a flat blade screwdriver to gently shove the presser foot
straight back to bend it to get this clearance.....
You may need to raise the presser foot another notch or two....what speed are
you trying to sew these caps at??
