2025 Hobonichi Accessories: B6 Lined Fireside Chat Notebook

Hobonichi

Quotes by Safety Match are often featured as daily quotes in our techo. You may have seen it printed on the box that we deliver the Hobonichi Techo in.

These quotes are like a proverb, a soliloquy, philosophical, poetic, allegorical… It’s rumored that these short phrases with a mysterious charm are from a book that only Shigesato Itoi has hidden away, but as a mystery since the first issue of “Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun,” nothing more has been revealed about it. We wonder who it actually is? This B6 size notebook incorporates motifs based on the words of Safety Match.

There are four types: Graph, Lined, Dot Grid and Blank. They each have different quotes printed on them.

The pages on the inside not only have different lines but have designs linked to the quote. These notebooks are made with Tomoe River paper. While it is only 3mm thick, it has 80 pages so you’ll be able to write plenty. It’s made with stitch binding and the color of the thread is chosen for each front cover and acts as an accent. The B6 size perfectly fits the A5 Cousin size cover. These notebooks also comes in B7 size that fits perfectly in the A6 Original size cover.

The Lined notebook is designed using the following quote as a motif.

You write. You draw.
As you move your hand, the lines start to run.
And with the lines, your mind runs free.
So, writing by hand is like sending your mind on a journey, see?


Some of the ruled lines are rounded or uneven as if written by hand. This design will catch your eye as you write and will add to the enjoyment of writing. The lines are printed 7mm apart in blue, and the cover is a pale salmon pink.
