Help please! Biro on white cotton stitching

A child at my daughters school has scribbled blue biro in the white cotton logo stitching and she is really upset.

Does anyone have a fail safe tip for removing biro please?

Thanks in advance!

Hand sanitiser worked for me with blue biro on a white shirt. Let it sit for a few minutes, gave it a light scrub and then washed it.

hair spray.
spray liberally and then wash as usual

Soak it in milk for a couple of hours then ash with vanish. My boss had a habit of leaving pens in his pocket and sitting down so they’d leak and milk worked every time

Yes hairspray works really well

Hairspray or Hand sanitizer.

I got fountain pen ink on my bed sheets. You wouldn't know I did after.

Thank you, I tried hand sanitizer, then vanish, then washing liquid then machine washed it.

Just about out. Thank you for the advice x

Milk is also excellent for removing ink.
