The “Drawer Pouch,” part of the Hobonichi Techo lineup, is a pouch that lets you store your favorite and important items all in one place. It’s like carrying around an organized drawer with you wherever you go.
Iwate Home Spun Pom-Pom Tweed is crafted from pastel tweed woven with a variety of yarns, from pale purple and pink to soft and fluffy cream and sparkling metallic gold. The zipper pull is complete with a light purple pom-pom that matches the look of the fabric and adds a touch of cuteness.
The words “Home Spun” in the product name reflect the textile’s distinctive handcrafted character and handwoven feel. The fabric is made at a small factory in Hanamaki, Iwate Prefecture, where every step of the process is carried out in-house, starting with the dyeing of the yarn. The mix of yarns used, including metallic, chenille, and knitted yarns of varying materials and strengths, requires it to be woven at around one-third the normal speed. This slow process allows the fabric to retain air, making it wonderfully soft to the touch. The zipper tape and interior are finished in a matching pale purple.
The Small Drawer Pouch is the size of a long wallet and fits writing utensils, cards, charging cables, and other slim items. 
The pouch can lay open completely flat when it’s unzipped, making it easy to glance inside and grab what you need.
(The pouch cannot store a Hobonichi Techo Weeks book.)
Inside the pouch on the left are three pockets that can hold cards, rulers, scissors, and other flat objects. The pocket width can fit point cards and business cards.
On the right side of the interior is an expandable mesh pocket that can hold items with more shape, such as pens, washi tape, charging cables, and more. Inside this pocket is a band that can hold pens.
On the outside of the pouch is a large pocket you can use to store pencils, tickets, or other items you want to have ready to grab.
The pouch can hold many items, but its slim size and compact shape make it easy to fit into a purse or bag.
This pouch is the perfect place to securely store all your important items. You won’t have to spend time digging around your desk or the bottom of your bag when your checkbook, receipts, cards, or anything else you need is stored inside this cute little comrade.
