Harvest Crittenden
Supply List
Materials List:

• McCaffery's Ink in black: One bottle is fine. It lasts quite a while. I37
• Nikko G nibs: 5 nibs would be fine N113
• Oblique pen holder we recommend starting with our oblique one for $13.95, nice quality, fitted for the Nikko. (H96) We have several other more deluxe models available, they are listed towards the end of the list below. (H95, H61, H50)
• practice paper ( I use Hammermill Color Copy Digital 28lb., 100 brightness in my studio. You may use Borden & Riley layout paper if you have it) We have this paper available in 100 sheet pads, list below as P25.
• mechanical pencil in pt. 3 or pt. 5 with plenty of lead. Sumo Grip pencil with 0.5mm lead, S681
• 2 colored pencils with sharp points - the color does't matter. Verithin brand has a stronger lead than most (and keeps a sharper point), S818.
• tracing paper for flourishing. Borden Riley 9"x12" pad, P43.
• 12" ruler ( I use the 2" wide C-thru rulers with the graph lines. They come in very handy.) We stock the exact ruler she wants, S798.
• blotter paper that is appx. 12" x 18" <- ours is 11x17", Harvest says 2 sheets of 11 x 17 will work, S261-11.
• Viva papertowels if possible These are readily available in the USA. For those that are not able to acquire them, we are offering a roll, S817. Harvest says: They don't leave fuzz on the pen points or brushes.
• inexpensive glass cleaner that contains either ammonia or vinegar. This item is not available from JNB.
• A 3-ring binder or folder for all of the handouts that will be downloaded. This item is not available from JNB.


Helpful to have, but not necessary:

Good lighting. I use an Ott light so that my eyes do not tire as quickly

A place where you can leave your material set up throughout the class

We offer an Ott Light, listed below, S806.

You will need access to a copier or printer for downloading handouts. You will need to have a camera or scanner to upload homework for correction.

We are offering an easy way to order all the items for the class. Just add the first item below (HC1) to your order. You will receive the following items:

One bottle McCaffery's Black
One H96 Oblique holder, fitted to the Nikko G
5 Nikko G nibs.
Pad of practice paper
Mechanical Pencil
2 colored pencils
Pad of tracing paper
12" CThru Grid Ruler
2 sheets blotter paper
One roll Viva Paper Towels

The cost for these items is normally $54.99 – the kit is priced at $50.00, saving you 10%!



S817. Viva Papertowels, one roll
One roll of Viva brand Paper towels.

Recommended by Harvest Crittenden for wiping pen points and brushes:
"I've used them exclusively for at least 8 years. They don't leave fuzz on the pen points or brushes."

We have made these available for those outside the USA or in areas where this brand is not readily available. One roll will last a long time.

H61. Blackwell Plastic Handle Oblique
Plastic Handle Blackwell Oblique Pen Holder

Black plastic hourglass penholder with the same brass flange for holding the nibs. The brass work is not as finely finished, but is just as functional. Works with crowquill, Brause 66ef and almost all other nibs.

A remarkably simple design that holds most pen points for
Spencerian and Copperplate. Designed to hold the nib at a less steep slant angle for ease of upstrokes. Also available with a brass and wood handle.

(Works with most all nibs except the very largest vintage nibs. Earlier holders did not work with the crowquill because the screw was too short. You may request a longer screw which fixes the problem. There is no charge for the longer replacement screw if you have the earlier holder.)

H50. Blackwell Wood Holder
Blackwell Oblique Holder

A remarkably simple design that holds most pen points for
Spencerian and copperplate. Finely crafted wood holder with a sturdy brass oblique arm. This penholder is designed to hold the nib at a less steep slant angle for ease of upstrokes. Also available with a plastic holder. Works with crowquill, Brause 66ef and almost all other nibs.

(Works with most all nibs except the very largest vintage nibs. Earlier holders did not work with the crowquill because the screw was too short. You may request a longer screw which fixes the problem. There is no charge for the longer screw if you have an older holder.)
