Thank you for watching! I have received a lot of comments about erasable markers for dark materials. So I tried different markers in this video. I categorised erasable markers by type, as some of the brands may be not available in some countries (and you probably have a better range of products than where I live!!). I also showed the brand names in the video, so you should be able to find out w...

  • @xiola

    Thank you for the comparison! I've tried heat markers and my biggest complaint was that the ink stays in the fabric and just turns "clear" - the colour will come back if you go out in the winter time, or if you ship the fabrics in a non-temperature-controlled shipping (you can test it by putting the fabric in the freezer; the colour comes back and you have to iron again!). It's good to know that the marks will wash out before ironing! (I tried to wash out after ironing and the package is correct, the iron sets the ink so it's very hard to get it out after that...)

      I’m glad that it was not only me who didn’t know that you could wash off the ink😅 The mechanical pencil is actually great. The lead is very strong and it doesn’t break off. I felt it would be great for drawing for intricate embroidery. I need to try and understand more how to remove marks more efficiently though.

    When you patched the worn one, the patch's edges appeared to be finished, not now . Did you it folded the edges under somehow but didn't show that step ?

    • @thegreenwrapper
      @thegreenwrapper 2 дні тому

      Hi! Is it the blue one? Probably the easiest way for patching is to simply fold down all the edges of the patch and sew it on over the damage. How I did is a bit different way which I learned a while ago. I first made creases along the edges of the patch to fold down. Then, I placed the patch with the right side down near the damaged area (but without covering the damaged area), and stitchd along one crease line onto the zokin. After that, I folded the patch along the stitch line to bring the right side up and cover the damaged area and folded down other edges too. At the end, I stitched over the patch to fix it completely. (Sorry…I’m not confident if it makes sense😂😂). This way, I can fix a patch first without using many pins or dealing with thick layers. The goal is to mend the damage, so you can do it in a way which is comfortable for you💕💕

    Your jar of scrap thread made me think of my daughter. She saves every scrap of embroidery floss after making a bracelet. I quilt and see quilters using sashiko in quilting and i can't even imagine the time, not to mention the wear and tear on the hands. Also, I am an elementary school custodian and reading the comments about how as children in Japan you were required to bring zokin to school to clean. I would love to see the reaction of the children at my school if this were the case. I do admire that about the Japanese culture, teaching pride in your community and caring for your community. Your video is lovely and I subscribed so i can see more of your work. 💜🐿️

    • @thegreenwrapper
      @thegreenwrapper 2 дні тому

      Thank you so much😊 Yes, we bring a few Zokins to school at the beginning of each school year to use them at the cleaning time every day. When I was a child, it was just a routine and I didn’t think too much about the meaning of the cleaning time, but now I feel that we naturally learned that there are people like us maintaining each public space clean everyday. I think we still generally keep public areas and building relatively clean with the respect to people who maintain them and others who use them. I hope that part of our culture will survive for a long time💕💕
