Lokta Patchwork Notebook – Large (21x15cm) – 45 Leaves – Includes Bookmark – Multi Colour

The most visually exuberant notebook in the lokta range. The cover is a patchwork of multiple coloured lokta paper pieces — different hand-dyed sections assembled together to create a multicoloured, quilt-like effect. No two covers look exactly the same because the patchwork is put together by hand from components that each vary in shade and tone.

A fabric bookmark is included. Inside: 45 leaves of handmade lokta paper, unlined. What Sets This Apart Every single cover is genuinely one of a kind.

The colour combinations are not standardised because the assembly is manual and artisanal — expect a mix that could include blues, greens, reds, yellows, purples, and earth tones depending on the batch. Lokta paper from the bark of the Daphne Papyracea bush, handmade in the Nepali Himalayas. Tree-free, acid-free, naturally durable and insect-resistant.

Large format (21 × 15 cm) with 45 unlined leaves of handmade paper. Characteristic fibrous texture with natural plant fibres visible throughout. Fabric bookmark with QR code linking to video of the traditional lokta paper-making process in Nepal.

Takes rollerballs, fine-tips, and pencil well. Fountain pen performance varies by sheet — some will be smooth, others more absorbent. The Patchwork Tradition Patchwork as a craft exists across virtually every culture that works with textiles or paper.

In Nepal, where this notebook is made, patchwork techniques appear in Tibetan-style applique, in pieced-together prayer flags decorating temples and homes, and in the practical recycling traditions of mountain communities where materials are scarce. The patchwork on this cover reflects that aesthetic: different colours of hand-dyed lokta paper combined into a single composition, warm, individual, and deliberately imperfect. Size and Details Large format: 21 × 15 cm.

45 leaves (90 sides). Multicoloured patchwork cover. Fabric bookmark with QR code.

Made in Nepal. Fair trade. Where This Sits in the Range This is the most colourful, most visually distinctive option in the lokta collection.

Where the Bold Floral notebooks offer pattern and colour within a single coordinated palette, the Patchwork throws multiple colours together in a deliberately eclectic way. It appeals to someone who likes colour, texture, and visible handcraft over polish and coordination. Gift-Ready High gift appeal because every cover is visibly unique — the recipient genuinely receives a one-of-a-kind object.

The patchwork communicates "handmade" immediately and unmistakably. Works well for creative people, colour enthusiasts, artists, journalers, and anyone who appreciates folk craft. The multicolour palette means it is not tied to any specific taste in colour.

Pairs well with coloured pencils, watercolour pens, or other creative tools. Good as a birthday, thank-you, or thinking-of-you gift. Common Questions Can I choose which colours I get on the patchwork cover?

No. Each cover is assembled by hand from available hand-dyed paper, so the specific colour arrangement depends on the batch. If you order two, they will be related in style but different in colour combination.

Is the patchwork cover durable? Yes. The pieces are assembled onto a lokta paper base, which is naturally strong and long-lasting.

Lokta paper has been used for important documents in Nepal for centuries precisely because of its durability. Are the pages lined or unlined? Unlined throughout.

The handmade lokta paper suits journaling, sketching, and free-form writing. If you prefer lines, a ruled sheet placed underneath shows through the translucent paper as a guide.
