Hobonichi 2025 A5 Planner Cover [Yuge Fabric Farm: Kagome Lattice Crest] Discount

Hobonichi 2025 A5 Planner Cover [Yuge Fabric Farm: Kagome Lattice Crest]

Kinran is a Japanese brocade made by cutting thin slices of paper covered in gold foil and using them as threads to weave together the design. We created a simple techo cover using this technique.

The fabric comes from yuge fabric farm, a handicraft shop run by Enima Design. The company also runs Essential Store, a shop that stocks antiques, artwork, and clothing from within Japan and overseas.

yuge fabric farm actively performs what it calls “fabric rescue”, which involves pulling old fabric from Japan and overseas out of cold storage and using it for new creations. The fabric used on this techo cover is also a precious find recovered from a factory in Hiroshima.

This pattern resembles a stone wall, called ishigaki in Japanese. It was referred to as either ishigaki-mon or kagome-mon (which resembles David’s Star) and is shrouded in mystery. This cover material is designed for kimonos and obis, and comes in a calm gray tone that makes it appealing for any user.

The pen hook can hold a pen by its clip, and the cover’s shape remains nice when closed.

The cover interior is black, and the left-hand side includes the yuge fabric farm logo.

The two bookmarks have different widths, so you could use them to separate what you’re bookmarking in your techo, such as business versus personal life. It’s black to match the colour of the cover interior, and lack of charms on the ends keep things simple.

We invite you to weave together your own history with this special techo cover made of traditional material.
