minä perhonen: path (Camel) Weeks Cover Only - Techo Lineup

minä perhonenpath (Camel)Weeks Cover Only

*Weeks planner book sold separately.

minä perhonen creates timeless, all-original garment textiles that are specially dyed, embroidered, and woven to recreate hand-drawn designs.

Embroidered flowers line a path in minä perhonen’s path textile. Look closely and you’ll see all the minute and unique details in each flower, made with a mix of plump, round embroidery and fine lines.

Although path is already a popular design, minä perhonen has created this new colorway especially for the Hobonichi Techo. The Weeks cover has a caramel-colored tint reminiscent of the sunlight bathing the path, and the embroidery is a refreshing green and gentle pink.

The daring use of corduroy, with its extra-fine construction, gives this cover a wonderful feel in your hands. The embroidery has been rearranged to fit the flowers along the long and thin shape of the Weeks cover.

The cover has a gray faux leather interior with a pen hook designed to hold a pen by its clip.

The zipper pull is made with natural leather and includes a butterfly charm.

When you walk your own daily path with this cover, its expressive, cheerful embroidered flowers will keep your days bright.

*This cover is from the Hobonichi Techo 2020 lineup.

About minä perhonen

minä perhonen is a brand created by designer Akira Minagawa.

First founded in 1995 under the name minä, and renamed “minä perhonen” in 2003. In Finnish, “minä” means “I,” and “perhonen” means “butterfly,” expressing Minagawa’s hopes to create designs as light-hearted and beautiful as a butterfly’s flapping wings.

Coloring may stain other objects: The dye in the cover may stain other objects if it rubs against or sticks to them, especially if the cover is wet from water or sweat from your hands. Please store with care.

Threads may protrude from embroidered area: Please note that embroidered areas may contain threads that protrude from the design.

This cover is meant to be fitted with one side of the Weeks book cover: This cover is designed to hold only one side of the planner book cover. Forcing both sides of the book into the cover will place stress on the book spine and may cause ripping or hinder the zipper.
