Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Clover 4714 Pen Chaco Liner - Stylish Silver Edition by Carol Miller

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like it, but not perfect.

I like this grip. I really love this pen. This is my theme for tracing patterns on fabric. It's not perfect, which is why it gets 4 stars when I really want to give it 5. I mostly work with fleece and this grip works great with fleece. I can draw a design, then fold it several times before cutting and the design won't come off. It's easy to remove by paving it like trying to dust it off. But only white. For some reason yellow and blue (I didn't use pink) just stick. I've tried washing things but these colors won't come out. You dye the fabric. I can't use this with white fabrics unless I completely remove the lines I've drawn. White is good and easy to remove as you would expect, but yellow and bruise stains. It doesn't work well with cotton fabrics. Yellow and blue match but need to be washed to remove the color and white is so loose it can be blown away. Embarrassed finger, cloth movement, whatever, and you have to redraw it. It works, but you have to be careful. Finally, it doesn't work very well for fabrics like felt. The metal wheel seems to grab the fabric and rip small bits that get stuck and the wheel either stops and you have to remove the lint that is causing it, or it goes all the way in and you have to work to remove all of the lace. .I still love it and I use it for 90% of my tracings. The remaining 10% goes to Collins' Vanishing Fabric Marker, which is 100 times better than the Dritz version of the same product.
