The Clan Leader of the Feather Tribe was obviously full of interest. He was familiar with the hemp plant, and the fact that yarn spun from it could be traded for iron arrowheads was truly worthwhile.
He had seen firsthand how sharp these arrowheads were.
Then Ma Lin began to teach something more difficult, which was the 'four-stick leg-pedaling weaving method.'
Weaving with four sticks.
First, Ma Lin showed him the heddle stick, and then started to arrange the vertical threads on the four sticks, with 'Big Tree' helping out.
He repeatedly pointed to a piece of cloth, explaining that what he was busy with now was weaving, hoping that the members of the Feather Tribe would observe carefully and learn how to weave.
The principle of arranging the threads is that in every pair of adjacent threads, one must pass through the loop hanging from the heddle stick while the other passes beside it.
More than three hundred loops were hanging on the meter-wide sticks.
