What I recommend to you today is this tutorial on making cushions. It is an illustrated tutorial on how to use corn husks as a weaving material, which are flexible and strong, and twist the poufs.
Materials needed for corn husks and Pu Dun straw braiding:
Corn husks, clean water
Illustrated tutorial on how to twist Pu Dun straw braiding from corn husks:
Soak the dry corn husks in water. If the corn husks are relatively moist, you can skip this step.
Tear the corn husks into small even strips along the fiber direction.
When braiding braids, be sure to make sure the braids are as strong as possible Leave stubble, and the length of the stubble determines the height of the pudding. The length of the braid determines the size of the pudding surface.
You need to braid 2 braids like this, and no more stubble will be left when braiding the last section.
Tie the stubbled ends of the two braids with a rope.
Stack the stubble parts together and roll them tightly
Finally, roll up the part without any stubble.
Tuck the ends into the seams of the braid and press to seal, done.
Another method
In addition to Juan Pu Dun, it can also be made directly.
First prepare the corn husks, tie them with a knot, and tighten them.
Continue while twisting. The method is similar to braiding. When braiding, only use half of the warp and leave half to connect adjacent knots when braiding.
When compiled to the appropriate size, recycle it in the same way.
Finally, put the braid into the mezzanine and complete
Notes
The corn husks should be moist and even, not too dry or too wet.
Knitting must be tight and twisting must be firm.
In addition to corn husks, we can expand the application and use other flexible materials (such as old clothes at home, cut into thin strips) to make cushions.
