10 Simple steps to tie a Kimono Yukata Obi Belt

Step 1)    Fold the Kimono Obi/Belt in half for approximately 50cm. Then place the folded section of the obi/belt over your right hand shoulder of your kimono yukata, with the remaining section on your left hand side.

Step 2)    So that the crease does not come loose, wrap around the waist of the kimono yukata tightly.

Step 3)    Prepare to make triangular fold.

Step 4)    Use the folded kimono yukata obi belt on your shoulder to tightly wrap the unfolded section.

Step 5)    Centered on the knot, rotate the band as indicated by the green arrow.

Step 6)    Place the half folded section of the kimono yukata obi belt on your left shoulder. Fold the long end approximately waist width multiple times untill all belt length has been used.

Step 7)    Make a gathering in the center such that you can grab everything with one hand.

Step 8)    Use the half folded kimono yukata obi/belt on your lefthand shoulder to fold over the center knot. Then tuck under the knot of the belt.

Step 9)    Firmly pull the kimono yukata obi belt, ensuring the knot is clear, then hide the remaining length under the waist sectino of the belt.

Step 10)    If required, fold any surplus length and tuck back under the wait section. Then rotate the belt around, placing the fold in the center of the back.
