Hobonichi HON 2027 (English): Bow & Tie - Sheep Sheep Sheep

The HON is the hardcover member of the Hobonichi family: a full daily techo with its cover built in, so there is nothing to slip on or take off. This one is bound in the woven necktie fabric the Bow & Tie series uses, softly glossy and pleasant under the thumb.

Sheep Sheep Sheep lines a flock up in even rows across a bright green ground, each one woven in enough detail to have its own character: some asleep, some mid-hop over a fence, a few on skateboards, and one with a pompadour. 2027 is the Year of the Sheep, which makes it the zodiac choice as well as the funny one.
