Might be especially useful if you need to introduce some sort of knot motif into your logo. So I'm going to now switch to my second blank art board and start by creating the art brush. And I'm just going to draw myself a single straight line, to which I will apply an eight point black stroke. I'm then going to duplicate that, moving the line a specific distance, eight points, and making a copy. Then I'll press Command or Control + D seven times to give me a total of nine lines.
