Tracing a pattern keeps it in every size and ready to use again at any time. The size comes to 1 m × 1.5 m. Inside the pack are 3 pieces. The material is plastic-Folie.
For alterations to finished clothes a line on the fabric shows where to shorten and where to let out. 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. Before the first stroke, test on a hidden spot: every fabric takes markings differently.
What Prym pattern-making aid in Transparent is suitable for
- Transferring patterns onto fabric
- Drawing quilting lines and grids
- Alterations to finished clothing
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 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.
