Every embroiderer is aware that the markup facilitates the time-consuming process of embroidery. Any modern design is a 10x10 grid of cells to facilitate the orientation in the diagram. Therefore it is quite understandable that most of us draw the same grid on the canvas before beginning the embroidery.

Markers for pegging these rods are very popular nowadays. Colors can be different.

With these markers you can write very thin and clear lines. Lines are not melt. Markers are water-soluble and, therefore, unnecessary lines can be easily removed with a damp cloth. You should to put the embroidery in the tap water just for a few minutes when you need to remove the lines completely in the end of needlework.
