For the 2025 Yotsume calendar, designer and stencil dye artist Toyokazu Ono returns to the theme of the customs and landscape of Kyushu and Okinawa.  This includes the volcanic scenery of parts of the region, and the confluence of cultures found to the south.  Scenes include the hidden churches of the Goto islands in Nagasaki (February), the mixture of American and other influences in Chatan, Okinawa (September), the tea fields of Ureshino in Saga (April), and the Kagoshima’s bayside volcano (January).

Yotsume is a dyeing studio based in Kyushu, Japan, specialising in the historical techniques of katazome and tsutsugaki to dye and produce fabrics for everyday use. The studio is run by textile designer Toyoichi Ono. As well as fabrics and textiles the studio work on a variety of paper products which incorporate natural dyes and printing techniques, all based around the distinct style of katazome-dyed textiles.
