Description: |
| "My invention relates to that class of sewing awls whose handles are provided with a chamber in which the thread is held and from which it passes to the eye of the needle secured in the end of the handle, and is drawn off as required and the object thereof is to provide a sewing awl with an automatic tension for the thread, so that the stitches may be drawn as tightly as required, and the tension can be quickly and easily released."
The specifications note use with a second thread held on a shuttle.
Based on drawings in ads, this patent as improved by 908,708 appears to correspond to the "STEWART'S AUTOMATIC SEWING AWL" advertised by the STEWART-SKINNER Co., Worcester, MA. ca, 1911-1913. |
