Play cotton:

Playing cotton, also known as "playing cotton", "playing cotton wool" and "playing flowers", is one of the traditional handicrafts in China with a long history. It started in the Yuan Dynasty and is still in practice today. In the old society, many poor farmers and craftsmen in rural areas were forced by life to play cotton wadding in other places all the year round, commonly known as "playing cotton lang"

Although there are very few people playing cotton in cities nowadays, people over 40 will have a clear memory of playing cotton. The strings ring and flowers fly, pressing a pile of cotton into a neat quilt, as if it were a kind of magic, which surprised the children. I hope our future generations will have another chance to see this magical "magic".
