<p>A toy device adapted to loop a strand such as yarn through sheet material such as resinous foam fabric so as to simulate sewing or other needlework. The overall shape of the device simulates a sewing machine, that is, includes a platform on which material to be worked is held and a head supported in vertical spaced relationship thereabove. A hollow needle through which a strand may be threaded is supported on the bottom of a reciprocal plunger which when moved up and down, as by the child manipulating the device, causes the needle to project through the material and causes a series of loops to be formed on the back face thereof. A strand inserting device including a vertically reciprocal rod is positioned in alignment above the open end of the needle so as to thread the same. In the upper position of the plunger, the rod is independently operable from the plunger but acts in conjunction with the plunger in its lower position for safety purposes.</p> |
