What size do these print at?

Each scribble field is a seamless repeat at A3 proportions, so it prints clean at A4 or scales up for wrap and wall prints.

Can I get a different line colour?

Yes — name any colour, and the same three loop weights render it.

What's the difference between the three weights?

Loose keeps the loops open and sparse; tight packs them dense and overlapping; bold thickens the line for a heavier, more graphic mark.

Does the scribble read as a child's drawing or a designed pattern?

It can read as either depending on the weight you pick — the grammar is honest pencil pressure and loop size, not a cleaned-up vector line.

Scribble pattern: loose, tight, bold in three colourways

Scribbles — Loops the size of a lentil, drawn in a wobbling pencil line that overlaps itself, scattered evenly with the ground showing through, the pressure varying so some marks are darker than others., scribble repeat, looping marks drawn in one continuous wobbling line that crosses itself, the weight thickening and thinning with the hand's pressure, ground showing through every tangle, soft graphite with visible paper tooth

The scribble repeat is the pencil doing nothing on purpose: loose looping marks, overlapping, uneven pressure. These nine hold a loose open loop, a tight dense loop and a bold heavier line, honest to the line's varying pressure in each. Ask for a different line colour and the same three weights carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
