It's an interesting piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-st-paddys-wk#post-1788828 Fri, 17 Mar 2017 20:41:07 +0000 DonnaF 1788828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, JAileen, that looks like a furoshiki.&nbsp; I didn't know the translation, but just looked on Google which has the answer to everything.&nbsp; They call it a *wrapping cloth*, and they tend to be fairly thick and are only printed on one side so they don't work terribly well as scarves.&nbsp; I inherited quite a few from my mom; I think she wanted to frame them but never got around to doing so.&nbsp; I use inexpensive cotton ones to transport potluck casserole dishes.&nbsp; When you tie the four corners together it gives you a handle for carrying and any dampness won't impair strength the way a paper bag will.&nbsp; The dye in non-cotton ones can run so I'm reluctant to use them that way.&nbsp; (Ask me how I know.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-st-paddys-wk#post-1788826 Fri, 17 Mar 2017 20:19:58 +0000 Anonymous 1788826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your scarves and the way you are wearing them! The furoshiki is beautiful. I want one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-st-paddys-wk#post-1788820 Fri, 17 Mar 2017 19:36:25 +0000 JAileen 1788820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #6, and all of your outfits. They're all great, and yet so varied. </p> <p>I didn't know what a furoshiki was, but I think I might have one, that I thrifted. It's square and the fabric is kind of thick. Do you think that's what this is? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-st-paddys-wk#post-1788817 Fri, 17 Mar 2017 19:27:41 +0000 DonnaF 1788817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It started with the nails; I try to coordinate my outfit with my nail color. #6 is actually a Japanese furoshiki and what I was wearing in #5.</p> <p>As with Valentines week, I am suffering from wearing too much color too many days in a row; every now and again is okay. I like challenging myself, however, because it forces me to wear items I might not think to wear otherwise.</p> <p>Happy St. Patrick's Day every one! </p>
