Mizuhiki is more than just a form of knotting colored cords, it is known as a representation of connection, tradition, and artistry. If you have some free time, why not take a small step further and experience it for yourself? Seek out a Mizuhiki workshop in your community, gather the colorful paper cords, and let the knots guide you through a memorable experience.

The materials used for creating Mizuhiki are simple, paper cords in various colors, yet, the possibilities are endless. The process involves folding, twisting and tying the cords to form beautiful and meaningful knots. Everyone can make one and only accessory that only you can make. It is also very popular as a gift idea from Japan to a friend or family.

Here we present some documentation of some Mizuhiki workshops offered by some organizers including a local kimono shop “Bankan” and a student group of Hokuriku Gakuin University in Kanazawa City. Japanese version news about this event can be found in this page.
