Special Silver Pencil for Shading Dark Canvases

Stitching on dark canvases is so hard!  Make it easier on yourself with this special silver pencil.  (Sharpener included).

Using a silver or metallic colored pencil on dark needlepoint canvas is a great trick to see the grid intersections better. 

How to Use It: 
Apply Gently - Lightly rub the pencil over the dark canvas intersections where you need more visibility.
Stitch Over It - Stitch as you normally would; the silver is designed to be covered by your stitches and won't show through. 

Why It Works: 
Creates Contrast. It temporarily lightens the dark value of the canvas, making the holes stand out. 
Harder Lead. Unlike soft graphite pencils, the harder lead doesn't smudge excessivly and covers the canvas effectively without being messy. 
Disappears. It's a temporary solution that gets covered as you stitch, saving your eyes from strain.
