Wrap anything from a wine bottle to a yoga mat with this practical Japanese fabric-wrapping book.

Long before lately’s eco-friendly philosophy of “reduce, reuse, recycle” entered The usa’s collective consciousness, furoshiki—the Japanese method of wrapping things with fabric—flourished as a time-honored and practical art form. In Wrapping With Fabric, Etsuko Yamada—born into a long-line of furoshiki makers in Kyoto—explains the “one cloth, many uses” ideology at the back of the craft, the etiquette of color and the craft’s fascinating history. From there, she shares the myriad ways by which a couple of basic techniques can grow to be a simple square of cloth into an elegant wrapper.

Use your folded fabrics to:

  • Gift-wrap anything from books to flowers
  • Bundle up a picnic
  • Tote items around
  • Use as a handbag or backpack
  • Make into a pillow covering
  • Create decorative coverings for vases, tissue boxes, and more

A quiet reminder that opportunities for artistry are all over around you, Wrapping With Fabric is the craft book that makes it easy to bring a touch of grace and ingenuity to on a regular basis life—and assist preserve the surroundings, too.
