Tea Wrapping and Bags | Shifuku

An introductory book on bags and pouches that anyone can enjoy making by hand.
Beginning with the shifuku and fukusa that are staples of the tea gathering, it presents how to make 12 varied, easily adaptable pieces with clear step-by-step photographs.
It features many small items useful at tea gatherings, such as an inner bag that holds a kobukusa without folding it and a card case for organising membership cards and tea tickets.
It also includes plenty of bags useful in daily life, such as a travel bag for carrying your favourite utensils and a yamato-bukuro that can be easily made from a furoshiki. With patterns that can be enlarged and used as they are, beginners can feel at ease.
Make a shifuku for your favourite tea utensil or put the fabric you have to good use: a book that broadens the pleasure of handmaking.
