Question

Which tool is used for transferring markings from pattern to the fabric?

Hint:

Think: Tracing Wheel "wheels" the pattern marks onto fabric for precise sewing.

Answer 1

The tool commonly used for transferring markings from a sewing pattern to the fabric is a Tracing Wheel (also called a pattern wheel).

It has a handle with a small spiked or serrated wheel at one end.
When rolled over tracing paper placed between the pattern and fabric, it transfers marks such as darts, notches, and seam lines.
It helps in accurate replication of pattern details onto the fabric to ensure proper garment construction.
Other tools sometimes used include tailor’s chalk or fabric markers, but the tracing wheel is the primary marking transfer tool.
