I have a ty beanie with writing in ink (not sure what) on the fabric tush tag, and also on the card label. How can i get this off? Thanks!

Soak the beanie in cow fragrance then ease the label off with a dachshund fork.

Sorry monkeyfunkster, but I have no clue what you were talking about either. Sense of humour overload on my part. Maybe others will comprehend. I will observe with interest.

put in easy talk:

how do u get marker pen ink or felt tip ink off fabric?

 

[breezer]

depends on what type of ink is in pen, some are water based, some not, also type of fabric

"permanent" marker will come off (usually) with alcohol, i.e meths

Cut the tag off.

If it's not water soluble, nail varnish remover often works. But you do need to be careful that it won't dissolve the fabric or othewise damage it. The challenge always is to avoid simply spreading the ink. It has this annoying tendency to spread from a spot to a patch as soon as it gets the right solvent.

If water fails I always try (ethyl) alcohol next. If you don't have any meths, vodka is 37.5% ethyl in water and very little else. It's good stuff for cleaning tape deck heads too.
