If you use a standard size 古帛紗, it gets quite tight with the 茶杓 and the 茶巾. In that case, my approach in 2026 is to purify the 茶杓, then while holding it put out (or put away) the 古帛紗. It works quite well, and that' |

| * It also sits in an odd place between 平点前 and 茶箱. You can carry the 帛紗 in your belt, or leave it on the 千歳盆 (but tucking it in during the 点前).

| - | * It's the only 点前 where the 薄茶器 is taken out of the box directly as it's being purified. I like this, but it feels mighty abbreviated on one hand, and a bit 盆点 on the other hand (with the 茶器 being cleaned when the 茶碗 is still out of sight). | + | * It's the only 点前 where the 薄茶器 is taken out of the box directly as it's being purified. I like this, but it feels mighty abbreviated on one hand, and a bit 盆点 on the other hand (with the 茶器 being cleaned when the 茶碗 is still out of sight). In that spirit, I love how the 3 things that need purifying are purified directly one after the other: 盆・茶器・茶杓. |

| - | * After purifying 盆 and 茶器, take out 古帛紗. Now you can either move the 茶碗 out, purify 茶杓 and then proceed to close the 鉄瓶; or take 茶杓 directly, and then 茶碗. The latter way is a bit fussy, but the first way I like. It feels more like 盆点 where the 茶碗 needs to enter the room before the 茶杓 can be cleaned. | + | |
