Abstract
A sewing machine needle includes a blade; a shank extending from one blade end and adapted to be clamped in a sewing machine; a needle point provided at the other blade end; an elevation provided on the blade adjacent the needle point; and an eye traversing the blade adjacent the needle point. The eye has a first eye end oriented toward the shank; a second eye end oriented toward the said point; a thread inlet side; and a thread outlet side. The elevation is situated on the thread outlet side between the needle point and the second eye end. The eye is bordered by two facing eye walls each having a respective edge at the thread outlet side. Each edge extends from the first eye end to the second eye end such that it is recessed from an imaginary straight line connecting the first eye end with the elevation.
