Charco markers by Clover. Distinct, fine lines, no sharpening necessary, and very easy to reuse. Also refillable. Built in wheel. Comes in colors (pink, blue, yellow and possibly even white). Clover makes the best tools!

I never use it to mark through the tissue. I pin, raise the tissue a bit at a time by folding back, and then mark. Darts and stuff I pin- mark only.

I've just about had it with the standard pencil type marking instruments at JoAnn's. If you try to sharpen them enough to make a detailed line, the chalk breaks off. If you try to leave the end wide and blunt, you can't make anything but the most basic dots.

What do you pros out there use? I have a wheel and marking paper, but that's really hard on the pattern tissues and I like to re-use them if possible.

What's your favorite and where do you get it?
