Description
Chalk marks on fabric and brushes out afterwards — the oldest answer and still one of the best. It measures 11 cm. Sold as a single item. Produced from plastic, metal, chalk powder.
Darts, pocket positions and plackets want marking before the machine runs — afterwards it is only guesswork. Markings stay visible as long as they are needed and then go with water, an iron or a brush. Before the first stroke, test on a hidden spot: every fabric takes markings differently. Anyone sewing regularly likes to keep such notions in duplicate.
What Prym tailor's chalk marker in Violet is suitable for
- Marking darts and seam lines
- Transferring patterns onto fabric
- Drawing quilting lines and grids
Frequently asked questions
Does the marking come off again?
Depending on the type with water, with heat or by brushing out. The pack says which applies; a test on a hidden spot shows it within a minute on your own fabric.
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.
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.
How fine should the line be?
As fine as possible: a broad line leaves open where exactly to sew. Darts and notches deserve the fine tip, cutting lines manage with the broad one.
