The paper has a soft fibrous surface that’s perfect for a wide range of artistic and writing mediums, including drawing, painting, printmaking, mixed media, even fountain pen.
Khadi is beloved by artists and enthusiasts of every level for its exceptional quality, versatility, and its immense beauty.The pages lay completely flat without damaging the spine, giving journal users unhampered access to the entirety of every page.
One-of-a-kind hard covers are designed with handmade papers and bound with a Coptic link stitch first used by the Copts in ancient Egypt to bind papyrus scrolls into the first codices which allowed knowledge and wisdom to travel beyond the Alexandrian Library.
My preferred coptic stitch is that originally used in Ethiopian Coptic binding, weaving multiple needles with linen thread.
