Patchwork crafts gain popularity among young Chinese_我的网站

A | (ECNS)-- Snuggling up to winter melons to beat the summer heat is going viral on Chinese social media. On Xiaohongshu (RedNote), the quirky cooling hack has attracted millions of views, with pet owners joking, "Every cat deserves a winter melon this summer." The trend has spread beyond cats to dogs, rabbits, and even Hong Tang, a tiger at the Shanghai Zoo, who has been given a giant winter melon to help stay cool. It may look funny, but there's science behind it. Made up of about 95% water, winter melons stay cool for hours and naturally absorb body heat. An everyday vegetable grown across more than 20 provinces in China, winter melons are especially abundant in Guangdong, the country's largest producer, accounting for about one-fifth of national production.

B | (ECNS) -- Patchwork, a traditional handicraft that transforms leftover fabrics into unique creations, is becoming increasingly popular among young people in China. Unlike fixed-pattern crafts, patchwork allows freedom in color, texture and design, with each piece reflecting personal style through stitches and combinations. The craft requires no advanced skills, making it accessible to beginners. Sewing workshops have sprung up in many cities, teaching participants how to use machines, select fabrics and create items ranging from skirts and tops to bags. In Wuyi, Zhejiang Province, studios have drawn young customers during summer vacation, with parents also bringing children to try the craft. Patchwork has a long history in China, as similar practices were recorded in The Rites of Zhou, a classic text on the Zhou Dynasty (1046-256 BC). Over centuries, the craft has reflected traditional values of cherishing resources and craftsmanship. Bu Xiting, a researcher at Communication University of China, said patchwork helps people relax amid fastpaced urban life and reflects growing environmental awareness by reusing old clothes. He added that slow handicrafts are becoming lifestyle consumption trends, with potential for integration into homestays, museums and public education.
