Weaving and dyeing ramie cloth has seven processes from twisting, looping, spinning, weaving to weaving, dyeing and weaving, with many processes and complicated procedures; weaving belts and other things use silk threads drawn from self-raised silkworms as "warps" and purchased cotton threads of various colors as wefts. It is relatively easy to start production and can be woven on demand. With the development of society and the improvement of the living conditions of the She people, ramie cloth has gradually withdrawn from the range of cloth used in She people's clothing, but ramie cloth is still used for "new clothes" and red cloth bags in dowries. In addition, the waves (She language, that is, red silk cloth) of belts (ribbons) and phoenix crowns have to be woven by themselves. Therefore, weaving and printing and dyeing are still one of the traditional handicrafts that need to be preserved in the She ethnic group area.
