Using this highlighter tape is super easy. When you're working on a pattern, simply place the tape next to the row or section you want to mark. You can move it around as you progress through the pattern because it's re - positionable. Just peel it off gently if you need to change its location. As for maintenance, keep it in a cool, dry place to ensure it stays sticky. Make sure not to stretch the tape too much when using it, as this could affect its performance. And remember, since it's removable, you don't have to worry about damaging your pattern.
