A Tailor's Awl is a versatile hand tool used for marking, punching holes, and guiding fabric, especially useful for piercing heavy materials like jeans or vinyl without tearing. It can be used to mark dart and pleat placements, guide fabric under a presser foot, or create holes for attaching rivets and studs. 

Uses:

Marking: Awls can mark dart holes, pleats, or button placements by piercing small holes through a pattern onto the fabric.

Punching holes: They are ideal for creating small, precise holes in thick fabrics for hardware like rivets, snaps, or grommets, spreading the fibers instead of cutting them for a stronger hold.

Guiding fabric: The awl's tip can be used to hold fabric in place for precise stitching in tight areas.

Hand-sewing: Some specialized sewing awls are used for hand-sewing, creating a lockstitch similar to a machine. 

Origin: China
