Regular Size Traveler’s Notebook Refill with Lay-Flat Design
Designed to complement your Traveler’s Notebook, this refill offers more than just extra pages — it’s a handcrafted piece of artistry. The name of this edition, "Cascarúo," comes once again from my home town Málaga. Cascarúos are a kind of lemon with very thick skin. These specific lemons are sold as candy. You cut them in half, dip them in sugar and suck the juices. Delicious!
Thoughtfully Handcrafted
Unlike regular refills that are bound with staples, this one is hand-sewn using pink French linen thread, chosen to match the screen-printed cover. Each notebook contains 92 pages and is designed to open perfectly flat, making it easy to write or sketch on every part of the page.
Cohesive Design Elements
From the dot grid to the endpapers, every element of this refill is printed in a matching palette, creating a seamless look throughout. Each cover is printed using screen printing techniques, from a hand painted design, making every notebook one of a kind.

They are just a tiny bit shorter than a regular refill. This is because I trim it once it's bind to get nice clean edges

Pages: 90 gsm Munken Pure paper
Cover: 240 gsm Scandia 2000
96 pages counting the end sheets. In total, it's 90 pages with dot grid
Munken pure is an off-white premium paper made in Munkedal, here in Sweden. Just 200km away from my workshop. It's perfect for fountain pens. It doesn't ghost and it takes a lot of ink to make it bleed.
The paper used for the covers is called Scandia 2000. It's a premium paper made in Lessebo, also here in Sweden.
The dot grid has a 5mm spacing and the dots are printed in a matching color with the cover and thread used for the binding.
Binding details
Binding details
The notebook is sewn by hand in 6 signatures of 4 sheets each, using matching thread color. Each signature is 16 pages.
The notebook is then pressed and the spine is glued using archival PVA glue. This adds extra strength to the notebook and keeps it slim.
Handmade notes
Handmade notes
These notebooks are handmade one by one. This means that although I aspire to make them as perfect as possible, minor imperfections are bound to happen.
Most people find these charming and it's a sign of a product that is not factory made.
However, if you are not happy with any of my notebooks and think it's not in an acceptable shape, please reach out and I'll be more than happy to send you a replacement or sort it out in any other way.
