My friend told me, "You should make Tenugui where you can see the design when you wear it around your neck." So I covered the Tenugui with Itasenpara Bitterlings and Kissing Loaches. Those are native species to Japan. If it's just them, it feels a little lonely, so I added Freshwater mussels and Common hornwort. I think the Mandara design works well. I asked people around me which colour is better beige or red. But their opinions were divided, I have to decide to make both!

広島の友人に，それはそれは手厳しく云われた．「なんで首にかけてわかる図案にせんのー？もっと売れるように作らんといかんじゃろ」と．
