A festive handwritten display family built from tightly packed parallel lines, offered in one non-colour style (Pasta) and two colour variants (Candy and Firtree) inspired by candy canes and Christmas palettes.
About
Released in September 2025, the three-style family takes the striped geometry of a candy cane as its starting point, assembling letterforms from dense, rope-like lines that remain legible without a clear outer contour. Lowercase letters carry asymmetric serifs and the capitals borrow touches of Fraktur, while varied stem angles reinforce the handmade, celebratory tone. The colour fonts use OpenType COLR technology; all three styles share coverage of over 509 languages across Latin, Cyrillic and Greek scripts.
Classification
A playful linear handwritten face assembled from tightly packed parallel and rope-like lines, with asymmetric lowercase serifs and Fraktur-influenced capitals. The festive, non-geometric construction places it firmly in the handwritten display category.
