Straw Waving Technique

Donghu Willow
Xifeng wine and women’s hands
——Shaan’xi balladry
Straw waving technique is a kind of bywork handed down from generation to generation in Shaan’xi province. Taking advantage of their free time, countrywomen weave the wheat stalks, corn husks and so on into braids which will become all kinds of commodities and craftworks after the process of braising, fuming and dyeing.
