In Wrapping With Fabric, Etsuko Yamada-born into a long-line of furoshiki makers in Kyoto-explains the "one cloth, many uses" ideology behind the craft, the etiquette of colour and the craft's fascinating history. From there, she shares the myriad ways in which a few basic techniques can transform a simple square of cloth into an elegant wrapper you can use to:

* Gift-wrap anything from books to flowers

* Bundle up a picnic

* Tote items ranging from wine bottles to yoga mats

* Use as a handbag or backpack

* Make into a pillow covering

* Create decorative coverings for vases, tissue boxes, and more

A quiet reminder that opportunities for artistry are everywhere around you, Wrapping With Fabric makes it easy to bring a touch of grace and ingenuity to everyday life-and help preserve the environment, too.
