Furoshiki are traditional Japanese wrapping cloths.  'Furo' is from the word for bath and 'shiki' is a thing that is spread on the ground.  In the Edo Period, from the 17th to 19th century, Furoshiki were used to wrap the clean clothes in, carried the just worn clothes home, and in between, were spread on the bath house floor to stand on while changing.
