There is a kind of fine cashmere line which is very suitable for shawls. It keeps warm in autumn and winter, but the pure wool will shrink, so the hook needs to be bigger.

Shawls, also called cloud shoulders, are mostly made of satin and brocade. Most cloud shoulders are composed of four kinds of moire patterns, which are called four-in-one wishful pattern, willow pattern and lotus pattern. There are auspicious propositions such as rich peony, long life, and more than one year. It was very popular in Ming and Qing dynasties, and it was mostly used in social occasions such as weddings and receptions.

This shawl is an old dress. There is a cloud in Liu Ruoyu's biography of Si Zhi Mu Chen: shawls and mink are circled, ranging from six to seven inches in height, as big as a hat, with two squares of mink on both sides, reaching inward to the ears, that is, the hook belt is obliquely hung on the back mound of the official hat.

Tsui Hark's book "Qing Li Banknotes, Clothes and Shawls" also mentioned that shawls are used in official uniforms of civil and military sketches, put around the neck, covered over the shoulders, shaped like ling, embroidered with pythons. There are also eight banners.

In addition to warmth and decoration, shawls are also used as fixation devices for humeral neck fractures. See Volume 87 of Jin Jian of Medical Zong: "The tool is a piece of cooked cowhide, five inches long and three inches wide. Drill two holes at both ends, clamp them at the wound and tie them tightly with cotton rope. Used for fixation after reduction of humeral neck fracture or complex shoulder fracture.

Shawl is a kind of clothing developed after the Sui Dynasty (58 1-6 18). It surrounds the neck and is worn on the shoulders. Later, shawls were mostly worn when 18 years old or married.

The form of shawl is mostly "four in one" shape, and there are also strips. A shawl is generally composed of two layers of eight hanging clouds, each of which is embroidered with flowers, birds and insects, or with operas and stories.

A beautiful shawl takes a long time to embroider, and its exquisite craftsmanship is amazing. There are various stitches in shawl embroidery, such as arm pulling, needle connecting, needle roller, pine needle, sewing thread, beating, gold circling, needle grabbing, Qi Zhen, etc., and there are also many styles.
