White Water Soluble Marking Pencils - 2 Piece Set

After trying numerous other brands that would break when sharpening, these have been the best of the bunch.

These marking pencils work great for me and I use them daily while making masks. I do have another item that I use for different lighter-color fabrics but this is my 'go-to' for marking my fabrics. I'm back for a few more to put in my cart for next time.

The only way I could see the marks was to press down really hard. Even then the white was very faint. Luckily I was trying to mark sturdy fabric. It would probably tear a lighter weight fabric.

50 years ago when I was learning to sew a white pencil or chalk was the only thing we had for marking so I bought a couple thinking they would do the same. No matter how hard I pressed I could not get them to make a visible mark. So I don’t recommend.

Our professional sewing team says these are the best pencils we've tried since Nonce discontinued theirs. Remember to wet the tip before using, otherwise they won't make a mark. Re-wet the area to remove markings. They're fragile so don't drop them.

Absolute garbage. Doesn't make any marks, and if you press down too hard you start scruffing up the fabric.

I looked up reviews for this while in store. So thankful for Ed's review or I wouldn't have bought this - you must wet the pencil or it won't write! How could they not state this on the package directions?? Worked great on a dark green sweatshirt!

Almost all of these reviews seem to miss the "WATER" soluble note in the title. You have to wet it to use it or remove it. These work fantastic for dark fabrics! I also bought some blue ones by the same brand for lighter fabrics.
