Bring storybook charm to your daily planner spreads with the official Hobonichi x Yumi Kitagishi Ballpoint Pen in White Cat. Created in collaboration with renowned Japanese illustrator Yumi Kitagishi, this delightful writing instrument features her beloved "White Cat" character resting atop the pen cap.
What makes this pen extra special is its origin story: Yumi Kitagishi sculpted the original miniature cat figure out of clay by hand, which was then molded directly into this model to preserve every delicate detail. The pen body showcases a striking red-and-blue color contrast printed with Yumi Kitagishi’s name, signature logo, and the iconic "Hobonichi" branding. Equipped with a precise 0.5 mm tip, it delivers smooth, crisp ink flow that makes it the perfect everyday companion for your Hobonichi Techo, bullet journal, or daily correspondence.
