My 150 page blank books are decorated on every page with original knotwork borders around... nothing! So you can fill them with whatever pleases you.There are unlined versions, in which the space between the borders is completely blank. This is perfect if you like to do your writing without a safety net, or if you'd like to use the book as a sketchbook.
There are also lined versions of each blank book. In these, light lines are ruled on the pages, with 3/8" of space between the lines. The lines are contained by the knotwork borders.
Each pair of facing pages uses the same border design, but there are a total of ten borders, in sequence, used in each book.
The first and last pages feature ornate full page designs (at left; the page on top is one of them) with room for you to write your name, a title, or even a curse on anyone who meddles with the book. If that's your style.
The blank books are all 7 1/4" by 9 1/2" and are perfect-bound paperback books. They're about the same size as a software manual or technical book often is; big enough to give you freedom within the borders, but small enough to pack along just about anywhere.The covers of these books are full color illustrations, based on my digital paintings of knotwork designs. Most are in the style of the "carpet pages" we see in illuminated manuscripts: dense, complex and colorful groups of panels, borders, and central designs. My paintings usually treat these as though the designs were three dimensional, like sculptural book covers, or doors, or... well, even I'm not quite sure.
These are the very nicest places I could think of for you to store your ideas, whether pragmatic, fanciful or demented, and I hope you like them!
