=====長緒茶入===== * According to CQ24, a 大海茶入 was used by Eisai when he got the "first" tea seeds to Japan * The shape of the 平棗 is the shadow of this 茶入. * If you put your pinky through the right eye, it becomes much easier. (You got to prevent it from turning, and then put it on the bottom). {{ nagao.jpg }} * For 休み, start as usual, but make the top / left one shorter. Then put the bottom / right one through for about 1 cm, tighten, then put the rest from left and right through the new eye. ====Sources===== * [[https://theteashelf.wordpress.com/tag/tsutsumibukusa/|Tea Shelf]]
