(nhandan.vn) - Brocade weaving is a long-standing traditional craft of the Thai ethnic group. Through many historical periods, the traditional weaving craft of the Thai people in Chieng Sang commune, Yen Chau district, Son La province as well as in many other localities is gradually fading away.
The club attracts the participation of Thai ethnic students.
To preserve and promote the traditional cultural beauty of the Thai ethnic group, in 2021, Chieng Sang commune established the Thai ethnic culture preservation club. The club restores, preserves and promotes the brocade weaving profession, attracting many ethnic women and students to participate.
To weave satisfactory brocade, one must go through many stages, requiring meticulousness from selecting blooming cotton to spinning, dyeing, and skillfully embroidering patterns.
The club was established and attracted many women and mothers in the commune to participate.
Cotton popping, twisting, rolling, spinning, and spinning into buds… are the steps to create traditional brocade fabrics.
From a young age, girls are taught by their grandmothers and mothers how to dye fabric, spin silk, embroider, weave brocade, etc. This is also one of the criteria to evaluate the dexterity and diligence of a girl before she gets married.
