Alice, I think that may be it! I'll try pushing up the thread when I get home tonight. I've noticed that the hitch loop is all the way to the top even when the thread is unwinding from further down the bobbin. Thanks!

I normally put my hitch on the wound thread. The hitch often works it's way to the top barrier. If it finds smooth wood instead of threads, it doesn't have the traction of threads holding the hitch. This usually happens with a bobbin that's not full. I try to fix it by pushing the threads upwards on the bobbin, under the hitch.
