The similarities in the Mizuhiki "musubi-kata" ... knots or ties ... to macrame and other ethnic weaving/knotting are fascinating. After years of reading and scrutinizing Mizuhiki and other cultures' creations , through trial and error perfecting the knots, I am now actively promoting and perpetuating the art of Mizuhiki by designing/creating/teaching/displaying/demonstrating/selling. |
