Chapter 137: If You Can Run, The Monk Can't Run To The Temple
Ye Yuran said: "Color matching."
"Color color?"
"Yeah." Ye Yuran nodded, "Before, I first taught you about colors, taught you how to match colors, and taught you a simple method of knotting ropes. These are the basics. Only after you learn this can you learn more deeply.
Gotta understand.”
In fact, the original owner didn't know how to do this at all. She was just relying on the fact that no one here could refute what she said and "cheated" Zhu Bamei.
She is the original owner, who else can jump out on behalf of the original owner and say that she is "lying"?
Zhu Bamei was stunned for a while.
"Let me braid it for you first. This is a two-color knot. It is actually a bit like the braid I usually teach you, except that it is a double braid," Ye Yuran said while picking out the suitable strips of cloth and using
The scissors cut a little thinner, and she asked Zhu Bamei to help hold one of the ends, match the color, and then started to braid, "Look, that's it, this is a set of braids, and this one is also..."
Zhu Bamei looked down and nodded: "Well, I know this, my mother taught me."
"Yes, that's it." Ye Yuran didn't finish editing it completely, so he started from the beginning and gave it to Zhu Bamei, asking her to try to edit it further.
Zhu Bamei was a little panicked: "Mom, I'm afraid I can't make it up well."
"Don't be afraid, you can continue to compile, I will watch you."
Of course, Zhu Bamei was not very good at knitting. When she was pulling out the strips, she would always tighten and loosen them at the same time. Ye Yuran had to remind her over and over again before she could complete the operation.
Compared with Ye Yuran's own fast editing, Zhu Bamei's speed was just like that of a child.
Well, actually, isn’t Zhu Bamei just a ten-year-old child now?
"Look, did you do a great job?"
Zhu Bamei didn't expect that her mother would praise her. She felt very happy and laughed so hard that her teeth came out.
If it were the original owner, he would definitely scold her for "smiling without showing her teeth", but Ye Yuran didn't mind at all that Zhu Bamei showed her childish nature. Seeing that she had almost knitted the previous piece of cloth, she asked Zhu Bamei to stop and start again.
I took one and taught her how to connect it in a "concealed" way.
"Look, like this, if you find a place with a similar color and connect it, and sandwich it here, does it hide the connector?"
Zhu Bamei was pleasantly surprised: "Really?! Mom, you are really amazing!"
Ye Yuran is quite proud of this method of hiding knots. After all, when he was a student, he didn't have much money in his pocket. The materials may not seem expensive, but when you really get addicted to them, you will find that you will invest a lot.
Money goes in.
Ye Yuran didn't have that much money, so she naturally had to think of ways to save money, so "hiding knots" became one of her main tricks to overcome.
Some roommates who couldn't figure it out would come over to her and ask her for advice.
Cloth strips are much easier to knit than special knotting threads. They are thicker, take up a wider space when knitting, and can be knitted quickly.
So within a short while, Zhu Bamei, with the help of Ye Yuran, weaved a beautiful two-color bracelet.
She had some stitching skills for sewing clothes at home, so Ye Yuran brought them over, helped her hide both ends, made a beautiful tassel, and tied it to Zhu Bamei's wrist.
Zhu Bamei was pleasantly surprised and exclaimed: "So beautiful!"
Really, it looks much better than the cloth strip she made before to cover the bracelet.
"Pretty, right? It doesn't matter if a girl likes to be pretty, but you have to remember that you can only take things that belong to you." Ye Yuran pretended to say it casually, and also found a few more suitable strips of cloth and cut them into thinner pieces.
, "Because you have to remember a saying, 'The hands that take others are short, and the mouth that eats them is soft.' Once you take someone else's things, it may seem like you are taking advantage, but in fact you will always have a handle in other people's hands.
Here, others can do whatever they want to you."
"Mom, why did you suddenly say this?" Zhu Bamei panicked and made a "thump" sound.
"Mom just taught you the simplest two-color bracelet. Now I'm going to make you a snake knot bracelet. This one is a little more troublesome. It only requires two ropes. Help me get it." Ye Yuran did not pick up Zhu Bamei.
Instead, he handed her the cut strips of cloth and continued, "Take one of the strips as the top and go around the other one, leaving a circle. The first one goes around the second one, and the same goes around it.
One loop, and at the same time, pass through the second loop and tighten it... This is the snake knot. Just keep braiding like this below. You can use one color or two colors. Because I want that
It feels like one section after another, so when I started, I folded the two ropes into four..."
Zhu Bamei looked at the beautiful snake knot and exclaimed: "So beautiful!"
Ye Yuran smiled and said: "You can keep braiding it like this until it becomes a complete bracelet, but I think that one is too simple and I want to braid another one for you, so I only braided half of it."
She gestured to Zhu Bamei's wrist, and sure enough she stopped halfway through the knitting, found a thicker piece of cloth, and began to circle it with thin strips of cloth.
The snake rope she had braided before was made of blue and pink, which was very beautiful, so when she made the loop, in addition to choosing a different yellow, she also used blue, pink and green medium at the interface at one end.
Reconciled for a while.
After gesturing at Zhu Bamei's wrist and seeing that it was almost half the length, Ye Yuran stopped, found a needle and thread again, and connected it with the previous snake knot.
Zhu Bamei's eyes widened and she couldn't believe it: "This is so beautiful?!"
Compared with the previous two-color bracelet, this snake knot and rope bracelet is naturally more beautiful, and it is as exquisite as the finished product sold in other stores.
No, she and her mother had never seen such beautiful things before when they went to the store in town.
When Ye Yuran was done, he also made a loose button (he deliberately left a bit of cloth to knit something like a small ball to use as a button; he left a piece of cloth at the other end to turn it into a "U-shape" and made a buttonhole), and buttoned it directly
On Zhu Bamei's wrist.
"Mother has told you before that if the color of the knot is matched well and the workmanship is good, the effect will be particularly good. Mother did not lie to you, did she?"
Zhu Bamei nodded fiercely. She really didn't expect that without any jewelry decoration, just a few rags, she could play so many tricks. She wished she could run out now and "show off" to the girls in the village - you guys
Is there such a beautiful bracelet?
——Hmph! My mother made this especially for me!
——Who said my mother is not good? Can your mother do it?
——My mother is very kind to me.
Ye Yuran saw that handwork was quite time-consuming, and it seemed a bit late to go to bed now. He was in high spirits, so he didn't plan to go to bed.
I took out a few wider strips of cloth with similar colors and cut them again.
"Mom, are you still lying?" Now, Zhu Bamei no longer had any hesitation and was looking forward to her mother's craftsmanship.
If I had known that her mother could tie knots so beautifully, why would she be running around all day long? She should have learned from her mother a long time ago.
What is embroidery?
