The Bow & Tie series is covered with the same textured, shiny fabric used in neckties. The material has a beautiful gloss and is soft to the touch.

The Sushi pattern has many sushi lined up on a bright yellow cover. The pattern of the plates, which match the sushi items, is also expressed in detail with the necktie weave. The fabric used for neckties has a weave texture that is pleasant to the touch and has an appealing silky luster.The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. This paper that underwent an overhaul with the 2024 edition techo is more resistant to bleed through, lighter despite being the same thickness, and has a smoother surface by adjusting the fibers of the paper.

Tuna, salmon roe, shrimps, octopuses, horse mackerels, and eggs. The favorite sushi revolves one after another, creating a lively and happy pattern. The sea urchin sushi plate that appears here and there also has some “gari” pickled ginger on the side!

The cover has been constructed as a light, hardcover book with some give to it so it still bends.

The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 69 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (73 pages in the English edition). The back of the book contains bonus pages, including Sample Symbols and Icons and Oodles of Noodles. 

And last but not least when you order this Hobonichi Techo Weeks, you’ll receive a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.
