Some patterns meanings:

- Asanoha (Hemp Leaves): Hemp is a hardy plant, able to grow fast and straight without requiring much attention. As a result, this plant has become a symbol of vigor, resistance and healthy growth. This pattern was often used on babies’ and children’s kimonos with the hope that they would grow up big and strong.

- Seigaiha (Blue Ocean Waves): Symbolizes a peaceful sea, quiet strength and good fortune. The name originates from the gagaku ancient court dance called Seigaiha, in which the dancers wear costumes with this pattern. There is a scene in The Tale of Genji where Genji dances the Seigaiha. Formerly, this Japanese pattern was used to represent oceans and seas on vintage maps.

- Karakusa (Winding Plant): This pattern was introduced into Japan via the Silk Road by China during the Nara period (710-794). The vines stretching in all directions symbolize longevity and prosperity. It has become well known as the pattern of the furoshiki cloth that robbers used to carry off stolen goods. It suggests that whichever house they broke into, the pattern was so popular that there was always a furoshiki with the pattern there.
