Hobonichi Techo Cousin Avec Book
    (July-December)    A5 Size / Single 6-Month Book / Monday-Start Week

      We first introduced the Avec in response to customers who struggled with bulging books after collecting a year's worth of pasted material in the daily pages. The Avec version splits the A5 Hobonichi Techo Cousin, design and all, into books of six months each with only slight variances in calendar spans and the number of extra pages in the back. This allows you to fill the pages to your heart’s content with scheduling, diaries, little notes, tickets, photographs, doodles, and anything that strikes your fancy.



      (See the Exploring Each Type page for more details.)



      The ice blue book cover is sturdy, making it perfect for use as-is without storing in a cover. And because it's lightweight, it's perfect for carrying around with you.



      The Avec Cousin can also be used with the A5 Hobonichi Techo covers, which provide extra features and come in a variety of colors and designs.



      When you purchase this book in the Hobonichi Techo Official Store, you will also receive two free 2019 Hobonichi Store Exclusives: the Not-Scary Bear Paperweight and a special Hobonichi Techo 2019 edition 3-Color Jetstream white ballpoint pen.



      The Avec is perfect for use alongside the Hobonichi Plain Notebook.

      Test fountain pens before regular use

      The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
