Weaving skills (reed mat weaving), a traditional skills project of the seventh batch of representative projects of the intangible cultural heritage of Lianyungang City. Reed mats, mats woven with reeds, have accompanied people's lives for thousands of years. The reed mat weaving technique can be regarded as a legacy of the Neolithic Age. It is a handicraft with a long historical span and the closest relationship with people's lives. The two people laid down the light brown reed stalks, pulled them out one by one, and inserted them into the bamboo shovel. It is a homemade tool in the shape of a round stick, with three holes and four holes at the upper and lower ends respectively. The reed stalks are broken into three or four petals according to the thickness. The key to this step is the strength of the hand. If the operation is not done well, the reed stalks will break. The third step is to use a feather scraper made of two pieces of wood to scrape off a layer of skin on the reed strips. The reed strips are neatly arranged, sprayed with water, and then crushed from above with a reed shovel. "Half of it takes half an hour to an hour to crush." Bao Hengwu said that the reed stalks are completely flattened, and the fifth step of weaving can be carried out. Now place several reed strips in a cross shape, gradually add strips from the middle and weave in four directions in turn. Finally, use tools to finish, and the reed mat is complete.
