minä perhonenanone-anone (Black) [5-Year Techo]A6 Size (fits 5-Year Techo)

  • 2025 New

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



We created this Hobonichi 5-Year Techo cover in the hope you will spend your five years with this minä perhonen textile growing more attached to it every time you touch it.



The “anone-anone” design depicts a group of cats from all over the place chatting. Cats of different styles and sizes are talking to each other, saying, “Listen, listen!” and enjoying themselves.



The cats are printed in black on a calm ecru fabric, and the linen material has a natural feel to it. This cover is also suitable for adults without being too cute.







The cover interior is a natural leather to enjoy it maturing, and there is a tag on the bottom-right.







The pen hook on the right-hand side of the cover interior is designed to hold a pen by its clip.







Each cover contains a unique arrangement of the pattern. We hope you enjoy your one-of-a-kind cover.

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.

Five types that you can choose from

The 2025 edition minä perhonen techo covers come in five designs: “hütte,” “jellybeans + tambourine,” “pomppia,” “anone-anone,” and “piece.”



“hütte” is a textile with a cute contrast of green and orange. It gives a fresh look, as there have not been many designs with such a clear contrast. The subdued beige color of the inner cover enhances the textile pattern and is also very nice.



“jellybeans + tambourine” is a pretty refreshing design with the “tambourine” embroidered in smoky green on the light-colored “jellybeans” fabric. The freedom and loveliness of adding embroidery on top of a patterned textile makes us feel the expansion of the minä perhonen textiles.



“pomppia” is an impressive design, with different patterns making the rabbits look different. In addition to the ever-popular navy and white embroidery of the Cousin size, we now have the Original size in light blue with yellow embroidery. The brightly colored inner cover would be great for those who prefer bright and colorful designs.



The “anone-anone” uses the textile used for the 2024 edition cover. We added a 5-Year Techo cover to the lineup so that you can use it for a longer period of time.



The 2025 edition of “piece,” has become another unique design, with the new “fruitree,” “hanaha,” and “village” textiles added to the standard “tambourine” and “tarte” textiles. We hope you will find your own unique “piece,”.

Please Read Before You Buy

In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.

Actual specifications may vary from listing

Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.

Color and print may vary slightly

This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.

Pattern alignment varies by product

The patterned fabric has not been aligned to a specific layout, so the placement of each design will vary by product. The product will not be an exact replica of the one in the product photographs.

Threads are napped and uneven

Threads may contain uneven thickness or naps (knots and lumps in the material).

Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining

Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.

Avoid storing in hot and humid places

Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.

Inquiries about the minä perhonen collaboration covers

These Hobonichi Techo cover designs were directed by minä perhonen, but produced by Hobonichi. Inquiries about these covers cannot be answered at minä perhonen shop locations, so please contact the Hobonichi Store with any questions or concerns.

Not for use with Cover on Cover

This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Cover on Cover may damage the products.

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.

Interior leather may contain preexisting wrinkles and marks

The interior uses tanned leather that may have imperfections visible on the surface, such as wrinkles, scratches, stains, or vein marks. We ask for your understanding for these naturally occurring characteristics of genuine leather.
