The iron removes the marking and it only comes back if the fabric is so cold it could freeze. I bought a couple but I'm a bit skeptical. Will fool around a little on some scrap.

Anyone else heard of or used these pens? Thanks.
- I bought a pen from my LQS and it is black, I don't know the name of it off hand but I use it ALL the time, it goes away with heat! I love it! the lines are nice and dark so I can see them, it glides along in perfect lines, and when I iron they disappear completely and easily! they sell different colors too...I think even a hot dryer will remove the marks but I haven't tried that yet...I would never go back to chalk with these easy wonderful pens around! hope it works out for you!
