In recent years, Chinese fancy knots have become very popular. (81)

They are also symbols of happiness and good luck.
Chinese fancy knots are closely related to the everyday life of the Chinese people and express their aspiration for a better life.
"In primitive times, people kept records by tying knots. Later, they used knots as symbols of good luck to decorate their clothes. Some knots were designed to embellish fans and jade pendants. They are regarded as signs of happiness and good luck," said Mr. Duan, professor of China from Peking University.

These beautiful Chinese fancy knots, of a simple or a complicated structure, are made of a single piece of string by tying, drawing, twining, and weaving.
The instruments used include crochet hooks, tweezers, scissors, and lighters. The materials needed are string of various colors, gum, and small decorations made of porcelain or jade.
"In feudal China, it was unbecoming for women to show themselves in public. So they devoted most of their time to needlework at home. Making fancy knots was part of their work and they were very skilled at it. (83)
Chinese fancy knots are symmetrical and well balanced. The patterns on both sides are identical.
You can make an endless chain of knots on a single piece of string. "This symbolizes that life on earth will continue and multiply forever," said Mrs. Xiong, knitting expert.
