[Effects] The present invention includes a thread take-up lever that is mechanically moved up and down by a main shaft, and a yarn amount adjusting member that is displaced by a drive means separate from the main shaft, and furthermore, the drive means can be commanded by an input means. Since the sewing machine is operated based on the sewing conditions, the needle thread supply amount can always be set to a value suitable for the sewing conditions through cooperation between the thread take-up and the thread amount adjusting member. Further, since the driving means only displaces the yarn amount adjusting member, it is possible to reduce the size. Furthermore, since the thread take-up lever is moved up and down by the main shaft like a normal sewing machine, the installation of the thread amount adjusting member does not adversely affect sewing conditions, and the sewing machine can be driven at high speed.
