Review Of Frixion Pens For Cross Stitch Gridding

Thanks to an amazing subscriber who reached out to me last week, I think I’ve found a solution for gridding linen fabric and other cross stitch fabric that works for me.

Lemme show you the Frixion Ball Knock, a collection of 10 erasable pen colors that disappear with friction or heat. They are meant for artists or anyone who wants to use an erasable color pen on paper, but they also work great on fabric.

I tested this on a few different Aida projects as well as a linen project. In every case it washed out easily with hot water. Upon drying the color did not return. A few days later it still hasn’t returned.

I made a video to show you the pens and how I used them below. I highly encourage you to test this for yourself before using it just to put your mind at ease that it will wash out.
