A straight, pointed awl for opening small holes and positioning fabric during sewing. Useful when marking a fastening position, easing an existing opening wider or holding a small seam allowance in place beside the presser foot.
The tapered point opens the material by hand; it does not punch out a fixed-size hole. Check your fastening instructions and test on a scrap before piercing the project. Keep the tip clear of the moving needle when guiding fabric.
Includes: one Clover Straight Awl, product 485.
The project photo illustrates the tool’s use; project materials and other equipment are not included.
