TembeaTote Book (Mustard)A5 Size (fits Cousin)

    This cover is customers’ favorite from the Hobonichi Techo 2018 edition.




    This simple canvas Zippers cover was made in collaboration with Tembea, a Japanese bag maker popular for its tote bags.



    The coarse, off-white cotton canvas surface feels pleasant to the touch and is outlined with subtle mustard-yellow piping. You can handle the cover as roughly as you would a sturdy tote bag, and never tire of its nice look as you carry it with you every day.



    The fabric is created with an old-fashioned shuttle-weaving loom. The process is slow and articulate, creating a dense fabric that’s soft, plump, and durable.



    The large right pocket is made with the same material as the cover exterior.

    The zipper pull is a ring, and the cover includes a single gray bookmark to match the look of the cover.



    The piping is available in a different color for each cover size.
