Four Tie Wrap, finished
  1. Lay the furoshiki inside up as a diamond and place the box in the centre. Corner A points at you.
  2. Tie corners A (near) and C (far) in a square knot on top of the box. Cross A over C and tie once, then tie again crossing the other way. You should now see a flat knot on top, with B and D spread out on each side.
  3. Lift corners B (right) and D (left) up over the first knot.
  4. Tie B and D in a square knot on top of the first knot. You should now see 2 knots stacked on top, like a 4-petal flower.
