A transfer needle for loop forming machines includes an elongated needle shank having a needle back, an outer side face and a top face opposite the needle back; a transfer spring attached to the needle shank and defining an intermediate space therewith; and a lateral recess provided in the needle shank and forming part of the intermediate space. The recess is defined by a guide face extending from the needle back to the outer side face of the needle shank. The guide face includes a first length portion bordering the outer side face of the needle shank and extending toward the needle back; and a second length portion bordering the needle back and extending toward the outer side face of the needle shank. The first and second length portions meet in an obtuse angle open toward the transfer spring.
