For those who are curious as to the type of knot used to secure the handle at the top,it was the simple Reef Knot;also know as the square knot.Thanks for filming a very interesting demonstration.
I wish I had seen this when I was still in Japan! I saw a couple being carried around, but I didn't know much about them. I would have liked to go there--I was literally a train ride away from Kyoto the whole time. Thanks for the vid!
I just loved watching this video. It is so awesome. The material is to die for. I'm just so impressed with watch you can do with anything. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I'm Afro american and can hardly wait to see the reactions when I sport one of my bags.
I just found some scarves at a thrift store in my area. The lady there said that they get them all the time. I will be going there all summer and stocking up on as many of them as I can. We have a festival in October and my aunt has a booth. I am gonna make some Furoshiki bags and sell them there. Great thing is that I am recylcing used scarves that otherwise might be thrown away. A win win situation. Thank you PEACE!
Thank you for posting this video. Introduced me to the art of Furoshiki. Fell in love with it at first site. Trying to get my fellow Kentuckians to love it too. PEACE!
I shibori dyed two silk squares about a yard wide each for my fabric design class with the intention of tying them like furoshiki-style. I took one to the farmers market, and I felt like a million bucks! Though I don't recommend silk for making bags, it's a bit too stretchy and fine. Cotton would be better for bags, but silk is perfect for gift wrapping. I also decided that if I were to do it again, I'd go just a liiiitle bit larger. 40 inches seems good.
I love Furoshiki. I made two out of some fabric that I had lying around. Love them. For those who want to know. You can make them out of just about any kind of fabric. Here's an idea you can steal from me. Go to a thrift shop or mission store they just might have some left over fabric that someone donated to them. Buy it and make your own Furoshiki. Not only to you have a wonderful bag but it is make from using fabric someone else didn't want. Talk about saving the earth.
Was anyone else struck by the irony of the women (at the end)each carrying their new furoshiki in a disposable package placed inside a paper bag? You'd think they'd be sold as is, and either placed inside another furoshiki, or made into an empty bag (in which items that might purchased during the day could be placed.)
absolutely amazing! My friend from Japan tried to demonstrate one by drawing it. An delighted to find your youtube! They also use a slightly more rectangular cloth to make more of a "hobo" bag that hangs from the shoulder to waist level. fantastic for a beach bag! for towel and lotion, etc.
I now have a bunch of scarves to start making bags to sell. The mission store that I get them from moved to a new location that is a walking distance from where I live. I now walk to the store to get my scarves. Saves on gas, saves the Earth, and is great exercise for me as well. I may just owe my healthier body to furoshiki. PEACE!
Nice, I like it. What kind of fabric is better to create the purse? What fabric do you use or recommend? And I''m confuse, is a rectangle or square? Thank you.
When accepting a proposal for marriage, a Japanese wrapping cloth is received, and it is returned when refusing. When performing this, already getting married is decided and formalized.
the only thing I didn't like is that: this wrap is to reduce paper waste and is meant to be eco-friendly - why then is it wrapped in big black paper and additionally put into a big beige paper bag???!!! Apart from that - I love the idea :)
no its clearly not. japanese furoshiki is older than that and you can hardly say that the kanji 風呂敷 is similar to poshagi褓子器. maybe koreans are misunderstanding
Hm... I'm not so sure you can call using the idea stealing. It's a bit too old and a bit too widespread. Definitely awesome to use though. I hope she'll try to find some fabrics. No idea what Ohio is like, but hopefully there are some good fabric stores in her city.
EXCELENT FOR A GIFT, I LOVE IT, BECAUSE I WILL DO IT, IS PRETTY AND CHEAP, AND VERY ORIGINAL, TANKS. REGARDS, FROM MEXICO. VERY GOOD YOUR COMMENT, GryphoneLady2007 bye.
здорово, а я знаю немного другую технику, но ваша мне очень понравилась, супер!!!!!! Обязательно попробую сделать такую сумочку, спасибо! Пожалуйста поддержите наш развивающийся канал, будем Вам благодарны. С нас лайк
Um, wouldn't those in theory be easy to make? Wouldn't the biggest problem be picking the fabrics? If you can't make one, it shouldn't be too difficult to commission a few from some friend or old grandmother or so, especially if you supply the fabrics.

this video is 15 years old and its still so educational!! i just made a mini one myself to hold some rings/necklaces !! so useful :)
It's good way to carry things without plastic bag!
Love it!!
I have just discovered Furoshiki and am amazed! Thanks for this great video capturing how to tie and use them!

i dunno why, but i cried watching this creative and innovative video!
Thank you very much for sharing! What a great way to wrap a gift with a gift. Spread the idea of not wasting without preaching :)

Carrying newly purchased Furoshiki out of the store in a paper bag. Love the irony!

what dimensions of cloth do i need to make a shoulder bag?
does the fabric have to be a square?
Thanks!
What a terrific video!!! Love you Cam!!!
This is brilliant! I love it!
Very cool!
I hear it said that Furoshiki is derived from 'Poshagi [褓子器]
which is korean traditional culture.
@GryphonLady2007 Yes! Do the right thing! Remember to save on other things as well such as gas, food, water, laundry and everything
Ingenious!
فكره سهله ورااااائعه وتحل ازمات خصوصا عند البنوتات اللي يحبوا التغيير والستايلات الغريبه

Hello
Where can I purchase the same fabrics you're using in this video?
Thank you.
it's so simple and convenient! :)
the only thing I didn't like is that: this wrap is to reduce paper waste and is meant to be eco-friendly - why then is it wrapped in big black paper and additionally put into a big beige paper bag???!!! Apart from that - I love the idea :)
How much for a piece of cloth for this, cloth, origami?

A paper bag for a cardboard container for a fabric for making bags. o.O
OhoyoTohbi Chula que
OhoyoTohbi Chula presentation is EVERYTHING. The irony is fascinating...though wasteful.
What a waste! Looking for beauty and solutions. Not just fashion

Ironic how this fabric gift wrap that is so enviromentally correct, is packeged in a cardboard packaging then in a package.
Hm... I'm not so sure you can call using the idea stealing. It's a bit too old and a bit too widespread. Definitely awesome to use though. I hope she'll try to find some fabrics. No idea what Ohio is like, but hopefully there are some good fabric stores in her city.
Thank you for the video. I'm off to make a purse.

do you know the name of the fabric? Is it just 100% cotton like it says in the end of the video?
This one was, yes. But as the shop is a material shop, there are a plethora of different kinds of material available.
