The knot you have tied is acceptable only for gifts given at funerals. Fine if you are gifting for Americans but don't present this to Japanese (unless they are dead).
Thanks for letting me know, I didn't know that. However, I never claim that this is a traditional furushiki wrapping tutorial and this is the only way of doing it. I just want to show people an alternative for wrapping paper. PS: I'm not american, nor japanese (but I guess you've already guessed the latter)
I don't get how the underside "flap" doesn't just come undone when you pick up the package as it would seem you lift it and it opens. (For course I have yet to try this.. but will soon lol)
that’s what i’m thinking
Ok, but small point, to have the ends cross away from the fold is for funeral, you probably want them facing the same direction as where it folds from.
I LOVE this! (I am half Japanese and teach furoshiki at our non-profit eco-centre). XOXO
Oh thank you so much!
Highjacking the top-comment for a quick PSA: other people already mentioned it, but this is not the right way to make the knot (at least not if you're gifting this to a living person.)
The two tied parts should end parallel, and to perpendicular to their original position. Here is an example of the correct and the wrong way ruclips.net/user/shortsODS36bTZQ8M
thank you for giving ideas on how not to over use wrapping paper and save lost of waste!
I'm a Senior lady and teach to other different things , Love this, thanks
After you initially wrapped the box you tucked the bit sticking out underneath but wouldn't that just hang loose when you lift the box?
Similarly confused
Thank you so much for this. I have a coworker that I wanted to give a gift to and honor him with a furoshiki wrapped gift.
So much easier than paper! And better for the environment!
Thank you! This tutorial was wonderful!

I love this concept very much! Can anyone tell me if you have to purchase special cloth for this purpose? Is it a practise where you use whatever cloth you have available to you, and the recipient keeps it?
Keep it up 👌🏼👍🏼!! Really lovely ❤️❤️
So simple and so beautiful 😍
Thank you!!!
@@pointfulthings love this! Could we have the measurements please
@@Learningworlds123 Thank you!! It depends on the size of the thing you want to wrap, but your fabric should be (at least) 3 times as wide as the thing you want to wrap. Hope this is clear :)
What about the flap on the bottom
Perfect tutorial thank you very much :)
Thank you. Great tutorial! We're selling Furoshiki, but I don't have a video!
Glad I could help :)
Thanks!
Hope 🇵🇭 will practice this iwas basura
(I'm PK from Tang Tongue Tales, FYI) :)
Thanks this was helpful!
Nice! Thank you. May i ask, what material does it use?
so...what happens to the loose piece at 35 seconds in? We just ignoring it? lol
If you tie the fabric tight enough, it just stays in place. Nothing to worry about ;)
This was exactly my concern, no matter how tight you tie it, it still hangs out. This technique lost me at that part.
How does that bottom piece work out?
Hi, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "bottom piece"? Do you mean what the bottom looks like?
When you fold it, it looks as though the bottom just kind of the fabric will dangle.
@@RoMD The fabric is stretched quite tightly on the bottom of the gift. No dangling fabric :)
@@pointfulthings I think they mean the corner of fabric that's folded underneath the box at about the 34 second mark. Keeping the fabric taught doesn't keep it in place for me. I've used a little double sided table to do that.
@@ryandehaaff1601 thank you for clarifying! I think it depends on the surface of the gift and the kind of fabric you use! The fabric I used stayed in place, but if it doesn't: a bit of tape does the trick, indeed 😊!
I want to sew a furoshiki. Can you tell me what are the dimensions please ? Really cooo video !
Hi Maya, thank you so much! It all depends on the dimensions of the gift you want to wrap. I recommend to use a square piece of fabric that's at least 3 times the size of the gift you want to wrap. For example: if your gift measures 15x20 cm, the fabric you use should at least be 60x60 cm. Hope this was helpful :)!
Pointful Things yes thanks a lot :)
Thank you for your video. Should the height be counted in the dimensions?
thank you!!!
What kind of fabric can you use?
Anything that won't fray! :) or if it will you can always hem it if you know how to sew
wow amazing 😭❤️❤️
Thank you so much!

What fabric did you use?
I had some Ikea fabric (ikea BOMULL, 100% cotton) left over from another project I did. I cut out a square and finished the raw edges with my serger. You can use any type of fabric (cotton, linen, silk, ...), as long as it's lightweight and doesn't stretch. Hope this helped!
How many cm fabric did you use? 🙏🏼
The fabric dimensions please? ❤️
It depends on the thing you wanna wrap. The fabric should (at least) be three times the size of the thing you want to wrap. Hope this helped!
What is the fabric?
It's just regular light weight cotton fabric. I bought it at Ikea!
Me tone eka mokkkda
sorry... vertical knots are for funeral....
This isn't right. The ties ending in that cross shaped direction is reserved for death...this should be avoided.
