- While gently holding the handscroll in the palm of your left hand, wrap the tying cord around the handscroll three or four times and secure the clasp under the cord.
- If the tying cord is without a clasp, wrap the cord around the handscroll twice; on the third wrap, place your finger under the cord.
- Form a loop at the end of the tying cord, pass it under the space provided by your finger, slide your finger out, and pull gently on the end of the loop.
- Never squeeze the handscroll, or pull the loop too tight, as damaging creases will form.
-
Wrap the handscroll in soft, acid-free tissue or unbleached cotton cloth and place it in its box.
