I'm just reading along and not near the end of the posts, so forgive if this has been answered. This little device is for marking patterns. The dart dots, etc. There should be a little recesses top and bottom for chalk bits that fit in. You place it over your fabric and pattern at the same time, squeeze it shut and wiggle the arm side to side a bit to make marks on the upper and lower fabric pieces...you have to make a hole through your paper pattern where the dot is so it can mark the top too :).
