Furoshiki, the Japanese craft of wrapping with fabric, is a time-honoured art form that embodies the wabi-sabi philosophy of 'reduce, reuse and recycle'.

Wrap a gift, cover a vase, embellish a handbag — or make one! Wrapping With Fabric shows you 40 beautiful things to do with a piece of cloth and a couple of basic knots. More than this, it explains the philosophy behind the 'one time, many uses' Furoshiki fabric, the Japanese etiquette of colour and the history of a craft that has been passed down through many generations and remains a fun and useful practice.

Wrapping With Fabric shows you attractive, eco-friendly ways to:
  • Wrap books, flowers — just about anything from wine bottles to artworks!
  • Bundle up a picnic lunch
  • Make a handbag or tote bag
  • Use fabrics to beautify vases, tissue boxes and more!
