Handmade Tenugui 手ぬぐい Cloth #2

Aug

A couple of weeks ago I made a blue & brown tenugui cloth featuring American cars & motifs for my first son. Now I`ve made a second one featuring British cars & motifs, for my second son.

First I did some red car silhouettes, then I showed my son a few spraycans & told him, "Choose another colour." He chose pink. I think it was a good choice - the result looks good.

Vocabulary:

- `choose` [チュウズ] is verb (動詞), `chose` [チョウズ] is past verb (過去形動詞), `choice` [チョイス] is noun (名詞)
- Be careful - `choice` [チョイス] is not a verb!

How do they use the TNMUGUI?

When we went camping, I couldn`t find my 2nd son`s hat, so I used the tenugui as a bandana to protect his head from the sun.

Oh! Bentley!? 
Both blue & brown and red & pink make very good combination of colors! 
I hope the colors last long.

I`ve washed the blue & brown one a few times now, & the colors only faded a little. Actually, a little faded looks good - you can see that the tenugui has really been used.
