Abstract (en)

A sewing machine includes an upper thread cutting mechanism (35) having an upper thread movable blade (40) cutting an upper thread (14) extending from workpiece cloth (W) through an eye (9a) of a needle (9) above a needle plate (5), an upper moving mechanism (36) reciprocally moving the upper thread movable blade (40) between an upper side thread take-up position and an upper side thread cutting position spaced away from the upper side thread take-up position by a predetermined distance, and an upper thread holding mechanism (31) holding an end (14a) of the upper thread (14) cut by the upper thread cutting mechanism (35) when the upper thread movable blade (40) is moved reciprocally by the upper moving mechanism (36). The predetermined distance is set so as to be longer than a distance from the eye (9a) of the needle (9) to the needle plate (5).
