Rose Story: Hayako Somehana Published January 15, 1986 Author: Hayako Yasuda Publisher: Kyoto Shoin My mother studied this diligently, and it was stored at home for a long time. There is some soiling on the cover and the book itself, as well as yellowing, scuffing, and scratches. Please check the photos. If you understand that this is an old item, you will be able to enjoy it just by looking at the instructions and photos. The inside is relatively clean. Full-size patterns are included, so you can use them by cutting along the outside of the lines. Thank you very much. Negotiations for price reduction are not possible.
