The Benevolent Dictator's teacher has decided that part of their school supplies this year are permanent black pens. Last year all the supplies she used were washable so this year I sent her off in all my lovely hand made garments. Two days in a row she's come home with a big line of black pen up the front, one on her brand new Hopscotch top and one on her brand new After School top. Assume for a moment that I'm insane and "Don't send her to school in those" isn't an option... have you guys had any luck with proactive stain proofing stuff? I'm specifically eyeing up a can of Scotch Guard left over from our new sofa.
