Sorry, Kawaiitori, I am not referring to the obi. In English its referred to as the Haori "cord". I supposed it could be made from an obijime, but it should have loops on the ends to secure the two sides of the haori with a slight opening and feature a decorative knot at the center. And obi is wider, wrapped around the body and holds garment closed.

I have since made a nice one for the haori, but I would still appreciate someone's translation of the proper term.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
