Sumi
Furo
- If you have a iron furo and have drawn lines in the haigata you may omitt the haiki. In that case you will not do nakabaki either.
- If your furo has rings flip them down, right side then left side before taking the hane from the sumitori (one book say to do it before you get the haiki). Take them up just before opening kama no futa first right then left.
Kyaku
- If there is only one guest the okashi goes Kamiza after taking sweets.
Tsume bring Okashi for the Shokyaku when he is getting his own tea.
Jiku Kazari
In Jiku Kazari the fan goes on the LEFT side, stuck under the obi for men and under the obi jime (cord over the obi) for women. The paper of the fan should be flat or parallel with the obi, not to press against the kimono, this means putting it in so that the outsides of the handle are against the obi and kimono (or obi jime and obi for women).
