One of my passions has been Shifu--the art of paper garments. Using hand pulled paper, which is cut into small continuous strips, is then spun into fine paper yarn. I have made several garments using this method. Not only have I used hand pulled Japanese paper but also comic pages from newspapers and tissue paper (the kind used for wrapping gifts). Today I share with you the technique that is unusual but has a long history.
Paper garments have long been used.
Enjoy this brief encounter into the art of
Shifu and paper spinning.
