The HON edition of the beloved Japanese planner line from Hobonichi takes everything that makes the Techo so special and packages it in a refined hardco

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

The Sheep Sheep Sheep design features a flock of adorable sheep arranged in even rows on a vibrant green cover. Their fluffy, rounded silhouettes are woven in rich detail with necktie fabric, giving each and every sheep its own personality.

Some sheep are sleeping soundly. Some are leaping over a fence with a little hop. Some are zipping along on skateboards. And if you look closely, you’ll even spot a sheep with a pompadour.

The sight of each sheep living life on the farm just as it pleases is sure to put a smile on your face every time you pick up your techo to use it. This design is also perfect for 2027, the Year of the Sheep in the Chinese zodiac, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a lucky charm.





Like the Hobonichi Techo, the HON features thread-stitched binding, so it opens flat at 180 degrees and stays that way — no need to hold the pages down.




The pages are made of thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper that holds ink well, providing a smooth writing experience.










The back of the techo contains bonus pages.
The English edition features standard favorites like My 100, Favorites, and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, alongside new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block, Hard-to-Translate Japanese Words, and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map.
The Japanese edition includes standard favorites like My 100, Favorites, and Solar Terms, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block, Useful Sign Language Phrases to Know, and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map.


We also offer a pencil board with a 5 mm grid, designed exclusively for the HON.
Note: Starting with the 2027 edition, the pencil board is sold separately.





In addition to the techos, the Sheep Sheep Sheep lineup also includes Drawer Pouches made from the same patterned fabric. See the full Bow & Tie: Sheep Sheep Sheep series here.

This design is perfect for anyone who wants to spend the year on their own terms — free-spirited and full of fun, just like these sheep living life to the fullest.

Note: A portion of the proceeds from this techo will be donated through Animal Donation, a public interest incorporated association, to organizations certified by the association for use in animal welfare activities.

ver format. More than just a scheduler, this planner is a blank canvas for documenting the small moments of everyday life. Use it as a diary, sketchbook, scrapbook, or simply a place to record your thoughts.

The cover of this Bow & Tie version is crafted from soft, shiny polyester fabric, the same material used to weave neckties, giving the planner a luxurious texture and subtle sheen. The hardcover format means you’re carrying a book-like object designed for durability and everyday use.

Inside you’ll find the same interior pages beloved by Techo users — ultra-thin and lightweight Tomoe River paper that lets you fill entire spreads without the bulk.

Sizes & Dimensions

  • A6 Version: Approximately 14.8 cm × 10.5 cm (about 5.8″ × 4.1″) – the compact size that fits easily in a bag or pocket.

  • A5 Version: Approximately 21.4 cm × 15.2 cm (about 8.4″ × 6.0″) – spacious enough for journaling, sketching, and planning in detail.

  • Weeks Version: Approximately 18.8 cm × 9.4 cm (about 7.4″ × 3.7″) – a tall, slim format perfect for weekly planning with plenty of memo space.

Key Features

  • Super-thin Tomoe River paper that is ultra-light yet resistant to ink bleedthrough and ideal for writing, sketching, or pasting memorabilia.

  • Graph sheet style interior with a lightly printed 3.7 mm grid that provides structure while remaining unobtrusive.

  • Daily planner section with one full page per day from January 1 through December 31.

  • Yearly index section covering December 2025 through March 2027, with each month listed in a column and two columns per page.

  • Monthly calendar section with two-page spreads for each month from December 2025 through March 2027.

  • 17 pages of additional graph paper for notes, sketches, or lists.

  • Entertaining and inspirational quotes printed on every other page.

  • Reference pages with space to record addresses, favorite things, and more.

  • Lay-flat stitch binding for comfortable writing across the spread.

  • Two ribbon page markers for easy navigation.

  • Included pencil board with a pen loop for added convenience.

Special Notes & Compatibility

  • The HON format features a hardcover design and is not compatible with the regular Hobonichi Clear Cover on Cover designed for softcover planners. A dedicated HON A6 Clear Cover is available under Compatible Products.

  • Some Techo Original covers can accommodate the HON, but only by holding either the front or back cover due to the hardcover’s thickness and stiffness.

  • Because the Bow & Tie fabric cover is woven, the pattern alignment will vary slightly from planner to planner, making each one unique.

  • Because Tomoe River paper is so smooth and thin, ink may take longer to dry and can be more prone to smearing compared to standard paper. Testing pens or using a pencil board or blotting paper is recommended.

Why You’ll Love It
The HON Bow & Tie 2027 Sheep Sheep Sheep edition is ideal for anyone who wants a premium, durable planner that also acts as a personal keepsake. The hardcover design gives it a book-like presence, and the premium fabric cover elevates the tactile experience. The one-page-per-day format combined with Tomoe River paper gives you plenty of space to reflect, write, sketch, or paste memories without making the planner bulky. Choose the A6 for everyday carry, the A5 for creativity and journaling, or the Weeks for streamlined weekly planning.
