Abstract

A skip stitch sewing machine is provided with adjustable means engageable with a camming surface on a needle bar for deflecting the needle bar when it is caused to descend while in an extreme lateral skip stitch position, and for thereby preventing a needle affixed to the lower end of the needle bar from striking a presser foot or throat plate.
