Homespun

Homespun textiles are a popular traditional craft. The process has been popular in the Jiangnan area for thousands of years.

Next to the Chengxu Taoist Temple at Zhenfeng Street, Zhouzhuang, tourists catch sight of workshops that work cotton through spinning and weaving.

They can observe how threads are spun and how cloth is woven, as well as buy finished cloth and garments made of homespun cloth of all colors.
