Anyone know what I can use on a sweater's HTV adhesive strip that won't wash off ie: permanent marker, fashion marker? I want to write across it but worry it will just come off in the washer/dryer. TIA!

Washing the item is the keep to feeling the transfer on and the writing on the transfer you are using. You can use the permanent marker you are thinking of using but when washing this you need to take into consideration how it is done. You should always turn the garment inside out when washing. Coldwater is the best to use when washing this garment. Using mild detergents is also recommended. Haning this up to dry or drying it in a dryer on a low setting. Allows allowing the transfer to sit for at least 24 hours before you wash the garment. Over time all markers fade just some in the wash and that is why a lot of people will hand wash the item and hang it up to dry. Do not hang it in direct sunlight because it will fade quicker.
I believe it will wear off a little each time it is washed/dried.
Try calling Micheal's or Jo Ann's to see if they can tell you what might work.
Another option may be to iron on a monogram that would stay on the shirt. Here's a link for a site that may:
