Pic story: inheritor of traditional string-weaving technique in NE China's Jilin (6)

Xu Xiaoxue is an inheritor of the traditional string-weaving technique, which she started learning when she was still a child.

In 2016, Xu launched her own brand. The traditional string weaving technique became a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage of Jilin in 2021. While operating a studio, Xu also accepts apprentices and offers free training courses. She hopes to carry forward the string-weaving technique, making more and more young people to learn and love it. (Xinhua/Zhang Nan)
