11. Could be a prob with dust/lint
in the bobbin casing. Try to remove bobbin, dust bobbin housing under lift arm out with a Q-Tip, remove all the old thread from bobbin and wind on new thread. You may also want to check the teeth area at the needle plate to make sure there's no thread or lint caught there...can really screw up a bobbin.

Did you do anything to the thread feed pressure knob? If it's too tight or too loose, can also cause bobbin probs.
