Am I the only heathen who prefers lined paper to dot grid paper in my notebook? Is it a left handed person thing? I want nice quality paper and lines, I know it's probably out there, but until then I'll suffer through dot grid.

Dot grid is upsetting and gross. Notebooks have to be either completely unlined, or full grid.

πŸ˜‚ I have to have some sort of lines because I write uphill if not. I'd probably be okay with a full grid, but I just want elementary school style lines.

Not happy with a standard notebook? Weirdo. lol

πŸ˜‚ I only wanted something nice because I'm going to write my patterns in it. It needs to hold up to being thrown in the bottom of a bag full of crap and pointy things. I'm more of a sticky note maxi if I'm honest πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ.

My people! Post-it notes will be the death of me 😭🀣

I love the...wait for it...lined ones πŸ˜‚. I have so many different pads laying around. They're so great πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

I don't mind as long as the paper quality is good. For some reason, my favourite pen refuses to work on rough paper.

I'll definitely suffer the dot grid for quality paper.

I mean if I had to choose I'd choose lined. I don't think I'd have a problem w dotted, tho. I've never used dotted but it seems like a pretty cool concept.

Apparently all the paper people think dot grid is the way to go πŸ˜’

How about Japan’s Tsubame notebooks?

πŸ‘€ are they lined????? I need to check them out. It's for writing my finalized crochet patterns I'm coming up with in. I'm generally not too picky, but this is a forever (for me) kind of thing.

Unfortunately, it’s only available in Japanese, but I’ll share the link to the online shop, so you can check it out.

I just looked at those and I love the landscape orientation one, but (on the jetpens site) I didn't see one with a hard cover on it ☹️. For a daily driver though, I may have to try it out! Thank you for the recommendation πŸ«‚πŸ«‚

I’m glad I could help. Feel free to reach out if you need anything else!πŸ‘

This is the ruled version of the exact same paper quality (Maruman says).

But it's loose-leaf...

☹️ I need the hard covered notebook. I'm only being so picky because it's for such a specific purpose. Thank you! πŸ«‚πŸ«‚
