Keep It Under Wraps


Furoshiki is ingenious. It's a great way to transport stuff by wrapping it with any old cloth laying around but of course the Japanese have elevated it to a kind of art form and recently, a Japanese Minister has been promoting it to reduce waste. Yup folks, it's all about going green.

I spied the diagram above at angry chicken's blog and immediately downloaded the PDF for myself. I've been doing the "4 tie wrap" for yonks without knowing it's actually Furoshiki... and I thought I was so clever!
