Description
For darts, notches and quilting lines: the pen draws what the machine will follow. Sold as a single item. The finish is Yellow.
Light cloth calls for a dark marking, dark cloth for a light one — which is why most sewing boxes hold two colours side by side. When transferring from pattern to fabric, the marking decides whether the pieces will match later. Markings stay visible as long as they are needed and then go with water, an iron or a brush. The pack states the size, so buying more later stays easy. Anyone sewing regularly likes to keep such notions in duplicate.
What Prym marking pen in Yellow is suitable for
- Marking darts and seam lines
- Drawing quilting lines and grids
- Positioning pockets and buttons
Frequently asked questions
Which fabrics does it suit?
Most wovens and knits. On very absorbent or coated goods every marking behaves differently, so a test on a scrap stays the safest route. On velvet and towelling it is better to mark on the reverse.
What works on dark fabrics?
A light marking — white chalk or a pen with a pale lead. On dark cloth any dark line disappears as soon as the fabric folds.
How long does a line stay visible?
Long enough for cutting and sewing, but not forever. If cut pieces lie around for weeks, redraw shortly before sewing. Light and warmth speed up fading, so keep pieces away from the window.
How should pens be stored?
Lying flat, capped and out of the sun. Pens left open dry out, and a dried tip draws streaks instead of lines. A pen that no longer draws can sometimes be revived on paper.
