One of the most well-liked accessories in the Hobonichi original collection is the Hobonichi Pencil Board. When placed under the page you're writing on, it reinforces and enhances your writing experience. It perfectly fits the size of the techo book and keeps your pen from slipping while also preventing indentations on the opposite page.

This design collaborates with picture book author and illustrator Keiko Shibata’s artwork on the theme of “wind.”

The A6 size “Upwind alpacas” design depicts the wind so strong that the alpacas’ long necks tilt. Their facial expressions are charming as they withstand the wind to keep themselves from being swept away. The back of the pencil board is white.

The A5 size “Swaying tulips” design illustrates mice in a tulip field playing in the wind; the wind has blown away one of them! The back of the pencil board is green.

The Weeks size “Wind gust during a Stay command” design depicts a strong wind ruffling the ears and whiskers of a beagle dog as it is trying to sit still as being told to “Stay.” It is touching to see how patiently it waits, even in such a situation. The back of the pencil board is orange.

One side is labeled by millimeter to act as a metric ruler, and a “Today” tab on the corner marks the current page if you’d like to use it as a bookmark as well.
