Hooping caps doesn’t have to be a struggle anymore with the GEN 2 package. This unique cap frame is not only easy to use, but also simplifies cap hooping and cap embroidery. Just open up the frame, hoop the cap, close the frame, and you are ready to insert the hoop into your machine and start embroidering. You can hoop almost every type of cap with this frame, including strapbacks, Richardson caps, flexfits, structured, unstructured, visors, and many more. The GEN 2 cap frame allows you to embroider closer to the brim than any other cap hoop, so you can take advantage of all the space on the front of your caps to embroider large designs. Additionally, this lightweight cap frame has other useful features that set it apart from other cap hoops. First, it has backing clips that hold your stabilizer in place while you are hooping the cap, so you don’t have to worry about the stabilizer falling off. Also, its internal retaining fingers ensure proper bill alignment so you can accurately embroider your desired area. All in all, the GEN 2 is an essential accessory for apparel decorators. *The GEN 2 cap frame is not compatible with the EM-1010.
