Abstract
A needle, which may be one of a plurality of needles in a needle module, has a rod attached to the shank adjacent the yarn guide groove or to the blade in the guide groove and extending laterally or transverse to the axis of the needle committing yarn to be directed readily into the yarn groove with a minimum angular deviation in its path. When the needle is one of several in a needle module the rod may be common to all of the needles and passed through an aligned hole in each of the needles and secured therein by bending of the rod. A yarn entrance guide is formed by each respective needle, the adjacent needle, the rod and the module body and this entrance permits ready threading of each needle.
