Some of you might remember bakpao's Shimenawa from 2023. Well I'm skipping forward to Shimenawa 4 because it's the best. Just like season 4 of Peep Show.

I also have no idea what Shimenawa 2 or 3 are...

Rules: Draw multiple non-intersecting loops through the centers of some empty cells. Different loops cannot intersect or touch each other. A clue on the bottom of a blocked cell indicates how many different loops pass through the cells below the clue in a straight line until the edge of the grid or another blocked cell. A clue on the right side of a blocked cell indicates how many how many different loops pass through the cells in a straight line to the right of the clue until the edge of the grid or another blocked cell.

Note: If you want to have working answer check with different colours (like in the example solution), you can turn on "Any color can match green line/edge in solution" in the settings!
