From it you can not only feel the happiness of creativity but also to know deeper about the Chinese culture.

It's very elegant an art.But I'm afraid I won't try.I guess it's kind of girl's business and I'm so clumy to do it

[Man Miao]

I know many people have the same opinion as you,but I just say nothing is all girls' or boys',it is the same in acient China people thought that a baby's coming is only the women's meaning.

[resonant]

Sorry,but waht do you mean by this?

[lolly]

What do u mean by Chineseknotting?
I want to know that cuz I am from a different culture.

[Man Miao]

I'm sorry for that.
As you know,to be a Chinese middle school English learner,we still very usual to use Chinsese way of speaking in English.
I just mean in acient China,women were only considered to be a housworker and an instrument to continue her husband's family tree.
Maybe you can't understand what I say as you don't have a good knowledge of China,but at the moment I can only explain like that,I' d like to tell you about it sometime later after I find the best words.
