A tensioning device is provided in the housing for keeping the thread under constant tension while being unwound from the bobbin and running, the tensioning device including a frictionally rotatable roller around which the thread is wound, and means for adjusting the tension of the thread. A thread discharge eyelet is supported on the housing for discharging the thread therethrough out of the housing, the eyelet being located at the bottom of the housing and adjacent to the latter. The thread is directed from the bobbin through the tensioning device to the discharge eyelet.
