Prym Parallel Chalk Tracing Wheel

The ONLY tool I've found that precisely and easily marks seam allowances on my fabric when I use my PDF "no seam allowance" patterns!Built very well and not cheap flimsy plastic and it's got a little window next to the guide wheel that shows you the seam allowance you choose by a simple click towards or away from the marking tip, AND, it stays at that mark while you use it. It has a large reservoir of chalk a cap that you snap back onto the tip to cover the chalk wheel so this tool can be tossed right in with the rest of your sewing tools with No mess. A first for me in the chalk wheel department. Very fine chalk, a fine line and Very little pressure is needed to do your marks so it's perfect for the knits I love to sew.Oh, yes, it can be used by itself without the wheel. It's made out of that rubber stuff that feels like your old Barbie doll bendy legs and it's easy to grip because it's chunky at the handle part. I'm in love and I would have paid whatever price they wanted actually but this tool was only $4 more than my Chalkoner and much larger to boot.

The media could not be loaded. The tracing wheel works great. There is a trick to putting it together though. Just check the Prym YouTube video.

Just what I needed to help with seam allows

Didn't work for my needs unfortunately..

This is too cool. What an easy way to add seam or extra size to a pattern. I'm new to sewing and a tracing wheel was part of the list of 'must haves' . This is so much easier than tracing paper and choppy lines. It took my a bit to figure out how to assemble this until I went to youtube and watched them do it. My 'duh' moment :)

Great for marking cutting lines on fabric. I draft my own patterns and this very handy little tool saves me time in marking seam allowances on patterns. With this I can cut out the pattern and pin it straight onto the fabric. The tracing wheel does the rest. The only drawback is that the gradations for allowances are limited.

This is a terrific tracing wheel for use on patterns drafted without seam allowances. It also doubles as a stand alone chalk wheel. Very good addition to my sewing room.

The product was hard to stay on the wheel and get a accurate trace from the pattern or garment. This is a product that I feel I wasted my money.
