A needle thread guide provided at a needle bar frame and located adjacent to the needle entry protects the needle thread from being stuck by the needle when the workplace is fed during button holing. The guide guides the needle thread outwardly when the needle descends, thus the needle thread positioned lower than the needle eye is protected from being stuck by the needle. The guide is associated with the oscillating motion of the needle, but its direction of oscillation is opposite to the direction of needle oscillation, and its amplitude is almost twice the amplitude of the needle.
