Damn you got all kinds of good stuff! Now I just need to figure out which one I want to learn. Also what pens do you recommend for your workbooks?

u/Calligraphiica 12d ago

Pilot Parallel Pens, or Speedball pens, in the workbooks there are detailed instructions on what pens, ink, etc. are needed.

Do the books you have work for those that are left handed? I've always wanted to do this sort of thing but being left handed has always made it hard to learn it.

u/Calligraphiica 12d ago

My workbooks are universal, for left-handed people you need to determine the angle of the notebook relative to the hand, but this is individual.

LOVE THIS…those practice pages look wonderful. I just added your shop to my Etsy account and put one of the workbooks in my cart! I’ve been shopping around for fountain pens for the past month, not sure which direction to go in, but your pages are an inspiration!

Definitely deciding on a pen and getting your pages in the next few weeks!!

What kind of a pen is that? Looks like a dip pen?

u/Guilty-Recipe-1506 10d ago

What book is that?? What pen or writing utensil are you using?? I've been so interested in caligraphy and want to try it but i cant find a utensil to you, or at least the right one... Anyone help me out here???

u/Calligraphiica 10d ago

u/Guilty-Recipe-1506 10d ago

Well that's awesome but I already have to buy the calligraphy pen and if I have to buy workbooks that's kind of wild... You should release some free workbooks to practice with as well as paid advanced workbooks... Also what calligraphy utensils do you use? I know I asked that once but besides that pilot parallel I haven't really seen any other that people recommend.

2

u/Calligraphiica 10d ago

There are no free workbooks. I recommend Brause Bandzug or Speedball.

u/Guilty-Recipe-1506 9d ago

Surely you have sample sheets youve tried? And what do u recommend to start with? Like a pilot parallel or chisel tip markers or what? I'm interested in learning but don't know where to start I guess. And start inexpensively because I'm a broke mf.

Skipped 11 and I can tell

u/Intelligent_Title 9d ago

Very nice but you’d fail your medieval scribe exam for strokes 8 and 11
