Grass cloth, that is, the production process of linen is very cumbersome. If you really follow the complete process, it will take too long, so Su An'an decisively decided to simplify the complexity and try to weave the grass cloth before the arrival of the cold season.
She omitted the processes of combing and sizing, and asked the tribe to soak, rinse and dry the ramie skin, and then asked them to twist the translucent ramie fiber into fine twine, and then directly put the twine on the loom for weaving.
It's just that when he saw the thick hemp thread twirled by the clansmen, Su An'an's expression was slightly embarrassed. It was really embarrassing for them to ask the five big and three thick male orcs in the clan to do delicate work, but the females in the clan were squeamish and impatient. Can't do this kind of work.
Su Anan sighed secretly, forget it, just use it first, the big deal is that the woven burlap is used to keep out the cold wind, and after that, the fine linen thread is made and then woven into a summer cloth that can be worn on the body.
After making the decision, Su An'an put the upper and lower rows of thick hemp thread on the loom to make the vertical warp thread, and tied a hemp thread as the weft thread to the shuttle, and used the shuttle to carry the weft thread through the intersection of the upper and lower warp threads. The upper and lower warp threads are exchanged, and then the weft thread is pressed flat with combing, and then the shuttle is used to carry the weft thread through the place where the upper and lower warp threads intersect, the upper and lower warp threads are exchanged, and then the weft thread is pressed flat with combing, and this action is repeated continuously to weave.
With a loom, weaving linen is actually not difficult. The difficulty is to repeat the same action continuously.
After seeing it for a while, a bundle of twine turned into a piece of animal skin under her constant shuttling. Alan reached out and touched it curiously. Although the texture was a bit rough, it felt that it could indeed be used instead of animal skin. There was a look of surprise in his expression.
Seeing her serious and patient eyes, she used the shuttle to carry the hemp thread through the warp she said, and the speed gradually increased. Alan's light brown eyes flashed a soft color. An An, who is so meticulous and serious in everything she does, is really too beautiful. It's exciting!
After observing Su An'an weaving for a while, after Alan understood the principle, he immediately volunteered. An An must be tired after sitting for so long!
Su An'an also wanted to know if a male orc could do the weaving work, so he stepped aside and let Alan try weaving.
Seeing that Alan used the shuttle to carry the weft thread continuously flying between the warp threads, Su An'an was relieved. However, she was obviously relieved too early, because she heard a soft "pop" in the next moment.
Su Anan followed the sound and saw Alan staring at the broken twine on the shuttle with dazed eyes. It was obvious that the thick twine was accidentally broken by excessive force.
Allen blinked his pale brown eyes, looked at Su An'an awkwardly and innocently, and said, "An'an, it's too fragile!" It's none of my business!
Hearing this, the corner of Su An'an's mouth twitched imperceptibly. This is tough thick twine, okay? Obviously, his hands are too strong!
"What should we do now?"
"It's okay, tie a knot at the broken place and continue weaving!"
"Oh, good!"
Listening to the sound of breaking from time to time, Su An'an looked helpless. She wanted to weave by herself, but Alan kept rejecting her and insisted on doing it herself!
Although the burlap often breaks, as Allen's weaving speed increases, after an hour and a half, a piece of snow-white burlap with a width of one meter and a length of two meters is still woven.
Allen reached out and touched the burlap, and saw that it could really be used instead of animal skin. He was very satisfied, and immediately looked at Su An'an with admiration and admiration, and said, "An'an, you are so smart!" Really I really want to hug such a smart and powerful An An! Unfortunately, she will definitely reject him!
Glancing at the protruding knots on the burlap from time to time, Su An'an reached out and touched the rough texture like the rainproof canvas of a truck. The texture of the linen is too rough, it seems that it can only be used to block the wind."
Hearing this, Allen looked at the burlap reluctantly, and said, "An'an, it's too wasteful to use it to block the wind! Or give it to me to make animal fur clothes!" Woven burlap!
Su Anan shook her head and said in disapproval: "This burlap is too rough, and it's uncomfortable to wear on the body. When we twist out the fine linen thread and weave the grass cloth with the fine linen thread, let's make clothes out of the linen cloth!"
After finishing speaking, Su An'an took off a small animal skin hanging on the wooden gate of the fence, and hung the burlap on it. Seeing that the effect of protecting against cold wind was quite good, and the light transmission and ventilation were obviously better than the animal skin It was a little bit of a sigh of relief to win, and finally the effort was not in vain!
seeThe burlap weaved by hand was hung at the entrance of Ann's cave to keep her out of the wind and snow. Allen stopped struggling immediately and nodded with satisfaction. The wooden doors are covered with burlap woven by himself.
However, Su An'an refused him, and let him carry the loom decisively, while she carried the twine and the first woven burlap to Cang's cave.
It is simply unrealistic to weave enough burlap for the entire tribe with just the two of them. Therefore, it is the right way to ask Cang to weave the cloth by hand. As the saying goes, there are many people with great power!
When I arrived at Cang's cave, Su Anan was a little surprised to see both Rick and Ritter there. After nodding and greeting them, she looked at Rick and asked with concern: "Rick, after taking the medicine, do you feel better now? feel better now?"
Rick nodded shyly and gratefully, and said, "I feel much better, thank you Doctor Su."
Su Anan reminded subconsciously: "Remember to take medicine on time, have a good rest, don't eat too greasy food, eat more fruits and vegetables."
Rick nodded hastily, and said, "Well, I will definitely do it!"
"That's good!" Su Anan nodded with a smile, then looked at Cang, and asked, "Did I bother you? Or I'll come back later?"
Cang shook his head and said, "Don't bother, we're just chatting casually. An'an, what do you want?"
Hearing this, Su An'an Maotong took out the burlap woven by Alan shiningly, and said happily: "Cang, do you still remember what I said, can ramie woven burlap be used instead of animal skin? This is what Alan and I are doing." Tumbling loom, which is sackcloth woven with a loom and hemp thread."
Hearing Su An'an's words, Ritter's eyes flashed with shock. She actually made something that could replace animal skins. It's amazing!
After Su An'an showed the principle of loom weaving and the tenacity and practicality of burlap, the dark golden tiger's eyes lit up a little, and the eyes that looked at her were a little hot, such a complicated and powerful thing Can think of it, An An is really smart!
But when she mentioned that she wanted to find a few ingenious male orcs, Cang couldn't help but look a little cold. Are there any ingenious male orcs in the Baka tribe? (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
