Definition: Chalk is essential for marking measurements and to indicate cutting marks. The reason chalk is so effective is because it wipes off easily without marking the fabric. Chalk comes in a variety of colors so that it is visible on any color fabric.
Chalk pencils are available at your local craft store, but you can also hit the grocery and buy a cheap child’s pack of chalk that has various colors included in it. This item is one of a few basic DIY fashion tools that you should have on hand.
