So if are a craftlover and have been on the internet anytime in the past 6 months, then you've probably been advertised the "magic embroidery pen" about a million times at this point. Question is how do these embroidery pens work? Are they anything new? And DO they work as they're advertised to? Ya girl Annika was somewhat skeptical, and apparently so were a lot of you so she decided to give it a go.
(ps if you KNOW what these things are and how they're supposed to work please refrain yelling at me in the comments until you've watched the video I get there in the end, haha!)

PS The artist whose work has been stolen for a lot of the promo pics is by @chloegiodaron_embroidery , who did not approve of nor get paid for her work being stolen to promote these pens. Another good reason not to purchase one of these!

If you want to learn all about embroidery, I’m not the most authoritative source by a lonnnng shot. I’m a total amateur at this. I’d recommend Mary Corbet, her website is full of tips and tricks for beginners and every kind of stitch you’d need to know, including how to use a lot of different embroidery tools.
