On the border of Yunnan and Sichuan in southwest China, the Mosuo villages along Lugu Lake preserve one of the country's rare matrilineal cultures. Here, traditional weaving remains part of everyday life. Women spin wool by hand and weave it into cloth using simple wooden looms. The patterns are inspired by everyday experiences. These fabrics are used for clothing and household items, carrying family memories and warmth. For people of the Mosuo ethnic group, weaving is not only a skill but an act of continuity and care.
