An adult coloring book of traditional Japanese patterns. It focuses on lucky patterns such as shippo (linked circles), yukiwa (snow rings) and pine, bamboo and plum.
The designs also include cloud, tortoiseshell and tatewaku (wavy line) patterns, flower patterns of cherry blossoms, hydrangeas and camellias, and Japanese motifs like wind chimes, paper cranes and hanging decorations. At the back of the book there is a guide to the patterns and an index.
The book opens flat, and it uses soft white paper that shows colors well. You can color with colored pencils, watercolor pencils, markers or other media.
