Abstract
A thread guide engages the thread from a supply qallet to a suction element, while the thread is held by the suction element, to entrain the thread to the thread-capturing slit of a winding sleeve in a winding apparatus, especially a stretch winder. As a result, the thread meets the winding sleeve at a location at which the winding sleeve and the thread are traveling in the same direction.
