A tall, monoline handwritten print with gently irregular stroke flow and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with loose rhythm and noticeable variation in width from glyph to glyph, as if drawn with a fine marker. Curves are open and slightly asymmetric, crossbars and joins look lightly placed rather than engineered, and spacing feels airy with generous sidebearings in many glyphs. Numerals follow the same hand-drawn logic, with simple structures and small inconsistencies that reinforce the informal texture.
Works well for children’s materials, playful posters, greeting cards, and informal packaging where a personal, hand-lettered feel is desired. It can also suit social media graphics and short display lines where the narrow, tall forms help fit more characters into limited horizontal space.
The font reads as lighthearted and approachable, with a casual classroom-notes energy. Its narrow, tall shapes and bouncy irregularities give it a quirky, conversational tone suited to friendly messages rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to mimic neat, quick hand-printing with a fine-tip pen, prioritizing charm and immediacy over strict typographic regularity. Its proportions and relaxed construction aim to keep text legible while preserving a distinctly human, drawn character.
Capitals and lowercase share a consistent drawn-by-hand personality, but the set retains intentional unevenness in stroke endings and curvature that creates a lively, human rhythm. The overall color on the line stays light and open, favoring clarity over density.
