The charming little lives of white cats, illustrated by Yumi Kitagishi
The illustrations of Yumi Kitagishi, an illustrator gaining attention both in Japan and abroad, return this year on techo covers and stationery. Marking our fourth collaboration for the 2027 edition, alongside the familiar White Cat, many animals such as rabbits, squirrels, and swans make an appearance.
The sight of these animals living vibrantly, set against the backdrop of homes and villages, naturally makes you want to imagine the stories behind them. With the HON making its debut in this collaboration, you’ll find a wide variety of designs to choose from.
It’s a collection packed with adorable scenes of everyday life that feel just like a picture book, tempting you to take a quiet peek inside.
The Weeks features an original wallpaper-inspired pattern featuring illustrations of a white cat, two elegantly dressed swans, a black cat maid, and a grand house.
The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. It's characterized by its ability to hold ink well and provide a smooth writing experience.
The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 71 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (75 pages in the English edition). The back of the book contains bonus pages, including Memories 2026 and 12 Switches to Help You Focus.
