Woven fabric in which many threads are combined vertically and horizontally to create a stunning pattern — the Lined Fabric series is designed to create different patterns through diverse weaving techniques.
For the Original size cover, the ivory and black threads create a herringbone pattern. The thick, durable fabric, woven in a traditional Lithuanian weaving factory, has been given a stylish pattern used for coats and jackets.
This design looks like simple stripes from afar, but once you hold it closely you can see the regularly arranged jagged lines unique to herringbone patterns.
The piping around the edges of the cover also has diagonal lines created by the weaving. It shapes the design and accents it.
Open the cover, and the inner cover is made of light ivory fabric with a smooth touch and gentle impression. The card pockets have a striped pattern created with the same herringbone pattern as the front side.
The two bookmarks are made with wide ribbons in red and navy, with the tips cut at an angle.
The cover is simple and profound, and its joy will last for a long time. Gaze at it, touch it, and savor it.
In the Hobonichi Techo 2025 lineup, the Original book comes in either English or Japanese.
*The English book is only available as the January-start version.

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.
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.
Threads may contain uneven thickness or naps (knots and lumps in the material).
Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
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.
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.
This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Cover on Cover may damage the products.
If you’ve used any of these products, we welcome your notes on what you like about them or what led you to buy them so we can share it with customers who are currently considering these products. We’d also love to welcome comments from customers who purchased their techo outside the Hobonichi Store or received their book as a gift.
