Cang Su looked at her, called her over and said to her: "This is Princess Yunwu, she is the one who made the wool weaving book.
Princess, this is Atuduo, the smarter girl in our tribe. If it is convenient for you, please teach her. Although the booklet remembers the details, it is not as clear as your personal explanation."
Atudo said sweetly: "I have met the princess, and I would like to ask the princess to give me some advice."
Yun Wu smiled and said: "I dare not give you any advice. If you have read the brochure, it is actually very simple. Weaving is not difficult. The difficulty is to find a carpenter to make a textile cart. We also have a textile cart in Dazhou, but it is too troublesome to get it.
, you still have to do it yourself.
Is there any wood in your tribe, or are there any carpenters?"
Cang Su was confused: "I do have some wood stockpiles, but there are no carpenters in the tribe. There should be some in Alan County."
Yun Wu rolled up her sleeves: "Go and call some dexterous people from the tribe, both men and women, and I will teach them how to make a textile cart, but this is my first time..."
"What? It's your first time to do it too? You don't know how to do it at all?" A strong man said in a very bad tone.
Yun Wu touched her nose: "Yes, I'm not a carpenter. I only know how to do it. I haven't done it myself, but there are so many of us. It's impossible that we can't make it according to the picture."
"Wood is very precious here. If we can't make it, it will be wasted."
Cang Su lowered her face and said: "Shut up, the princess is very valuable. She did it for us. How can wood be as valuable as her?"
I will take responsibility for the wood I use and get it back."
What else did the strong man want to say, but Atuduo glared at him: "The patriarch said he would be responsible for getting it back, what else do you think?"
The strong man lowered his head and turned away.
Cang Su invited a few people to come over. They were all young and strong, and quite flexible in doing things.
Yunwu taught them how to make it, and they were pretty good at it. The simplest textile car was not difficult to make. When she was a child, the dean of her handicraft class even asked them to make it themselves, but it was so small that it could only be used as a toy.
model.
For a simple textile machine, make a wheel out of wood, then make a spindle, a swing handle, and a wooden frame to assemble it, and it's almost complete.
Yun Wu asked: "Have you washed the wool according to the instructions in the booklet?"
"Yes, I asked them to wash and dry the wool after receiving the brochure yesterday, but there wasn't much wool sheared yesterday."
"That's enough. Just have some. Let's try to see if this textile machine can work."
Yunwu was also spinning for the first time, but she had the goods in her brain and knew how to do it. Although it was her first time and her hands and feet were a little slow, she still spun the wool thread, but it was not as good as modern machines.
It looks good. The wool is larger in some places and smaller in others, but the difference is not very big. It affects the appearance but does not affect the warmth.
The people of the Cangjue tribe, as well as Helianjue and Wang Xiaoxiao, were surprised that such thread could be spun.
"But what's the use of making such thread? It's too thick and can't be spun into cloth?" someone asked doubtfully.
Yun Wu explained: "It can be knitted into a sweater, which is very convenient to wear. It is much lighter than a woolen cloak."
"Ah, how to weave this?" Atuduo asked.
"I have a method for knitting sweaters in my booklet, but you should learn it faster if I teach you personally. Just sharpen both ends of the wood left over from making the weaving machine and make it smaller."
The people of the Cangjue tribe quickly whittled out four bamboo needles for knitting sweaters.
Yun Wu didn't know anything else, but she had knitted sweaters. When they were children in the courtyard, the dean taught them.
Yun Wu quickly knitted out a section. She thought it would be faster to knit the forehead first. She taught Atuduo how to use the needle and let Atuduo try it occasionally.
Atuduo is worthy of being praised by Cangsu as a very smart woman, and she can master it as soon as she is taught.
Yun Wu only needs to be responsible for teaching her one acupuncture technique, and she can study the rest according to the booklet.
After knitting for more than half an hour, while teaching and knitting, I finally knitted the forehead.
Yun Wu put it on Ye Xiang with her own hands and asked happily: "Is it warm?"
Ye Shang hummed. Although it was his first time wearing a woolen forehead wipe, Ye Shang liked it very much because Yun Wu knitted it herself and gave it to him as soon as she finished knitting it.
Wu Wu loved him the most and cared about him the most.
Whenever there is something good, it is given to him as soon as possible, which makes Ye Xiang very happy.
"I can also knit, and Atuduo will also knit one for the clan leader." Atuduo said happily.
Yun Wu blinked: "This is the simplest stitch. You can knit a better-looking one according to the stitches in the booklet."
Atuduo blushed slightly: "Okay..."
Atuduo's thoughts are written all over her face, and you can tell at a glance that her thoughts are on Cang Su.
But it was obvious that Cang Su didn't care about her that much.
Falling flowers have feelings, but flowing water has no intention.
"Okay, then I'll learn a lesson."
Wang Xiaoxiao approached Yun Wu and said, "Wuwu, can this kind of wool thread be used to weave clothes?"
"Yes, it's similar to this method. The clothes knitted can be worn as an inner layer, so you don't have to dress like a bun in winter.
And you can also use wool to knit sweaters, which are warmer and lighter, but even this kind of wool is still very warm."
"That's really great. When I think about wearing thick cotton clothes in winter, I can't move even in the clothes. I don't want to spend winter anymore."
"Although the clothes woven in this way can keep you warm, they are not particularly windproof, so they have to be worn underneath. However, they are more irritating, so they cannot be worn against the skin. Wearing a lining underneath and then wearing a cashmere sweater would be terrible.
It’s so warm.”
As far as Yun Wu knows, in ancient winter, in places like Ling'an in the south of the Yangtze River, everyone had to wear buns, which were really three layers inside and three layers outside.
If you want to keep warm, you have to stuff cotton inside your clothes, which makes them really bulky.
In order to maintain their figure, some harem women did not wear too much clothing. They often caught wind and cold because of the lack of clothing. Many even did not go out throughout the winter.
Therefore, Yun Wu felt that this kind of lightweight woolen sweater should be very popular, even if it is made into a vest, it would also be very warm.
Of course, the warmest thing is the down jacket, but the wool on the grassland is the best.
"Then why don't we get more wool threads and go back? I'm afraid we won't have so much wool when we return to Ling'an. There are the most sheep on the grassland."
"If you want, we can get some cashmere to take back. Just forget the wool thread. There's no need to bring it.
We can first tell them how much cashmere thread we need, and let them prepare it and put it here, and we can pick it up and take it away when we return."
Wang Xiaoxiao blinked: "Can we bring some wool thread back to do business?"
Yun Wu smiled: "What's wrong, Xiaoxiao, are you also thinking about making money? Didn't your family give you a lot of money?"
