The Hobonichi Techo Weeks Mega contains around three times the number of grid-lined memo pages as the standard Weeks, providing even more writing space. There are 215 pages (219 in the English version) of grid paper, giving you the freedom to keep writing and pasting materials into it as you see fit.
The techo weighs 180 g (6.3 oz), only 46 g (1.6 oz) more than the standard Bow & Tie Weeks, and with a thickness of 15 mm (0.6 in), it’s only 5 mm (0.2 in) thicker. Other than these two details, the Mega has the same specifications as the standard Bow & Tie Weeks.
The 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.

The Hobonichi Techo Weeks Mega comes with a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.
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 book contains bonus pages. Both the Japanese and English editions feature standard favorites like My 100 and the 365 Days Check-Off Sheet, as well as new additions like Phrases to Break That Writer’s Block and the Hobonichi’s Neighborhood: Kanda/Jinbo-cho Map, among others.
If you’d like storage space or a way to change up the look of your Weeks book, you can customize your book by pairing it with a Weeks cover.

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.

If you’ve used any of these products, we welcome your notes on what you like about them or what led you to buy them so we can share it with customers who are currently considering these products. We’d also love to welcome comments from customers who purchased their techo outside the Hobonichi Store or received their book as a gift.
We’ve compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Additionally, the color of the product may be slightly different in actuality than compared to how it appeared on a computer or smartphone screen.
You may notice press marks, slight whitening, or a glossy finish on the corners of the front and back covers. These are unavoidable results of the binding process.
The patterned fabric has not been aligned to a specific layout, so the placement of each design will vary by product. The product will not be an exact replica of the one in the product photographs.
The material in this product snags easily on sharp objects, so please handle with care.
The Tomoe River paper designed for planners is known for its thinness and smooth writing surface. However, depending on the type and amount of ink or pen used—as well as environmental conditions—some ink may bleed through or take longer to dry. We recommend testing your pens on an inconspicuous area first, or using a pencil board or blotting paper for best results.
