一、草帽的編織方法
以麥草(水草、麥秸、竹篾或棕繩等)編(bian)成七股辮(bian),用(yong)手(shou)工打螺形底,打底后(hou)再用(yong)草帽機釘成草織(zhi)或草編(bian)的帽子。最(zui)后(hou)用(yong)七股草辮(bian)在帽沿上(shang)圈邊(bian)。夏天戴(dai)這(zhe)種草帽,既遮陽又能通風(feng)透氣,十(shi)分涼爽。
1、正反結
整(zheng)排(pai)打完百結后,相鄰兩股(gu)為一組再(zai)打結,即成(cheng)百結網孔(kong)。
2、單結
系在(zai)橫(heng)線(xian)上的線(xian)繩每四股(gu)為(wei)一(yi)(yi)組(zu),將第(di)四股(gu)壓在(zai)第(di)二股(gu)、第(di)三股(gu)上,再將第(di)一(yi)(yi)股(gu)墊入第(di)二股(gu)、第(di)三股(gu)下(xia),然后挑第(di)四股(gu)套(tao)過第(di)一(yi)(yi)股(gu),第(di)一(yi)(yi)股(gu)壓套(tao)過第(di)四股(gu)。
執第(di)(di)(di)一股(gu)(gu)墊(dian)入(ru)第(di)(di)(di)二(er)(er)股(gu)(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)三(san)(san)股(gu)(gu)下,將第(di)(di)(di)四股(gu)(gu)挑套第(di)(di)(di)一股(gu)(gu),壓(ya)第(di)(di)(di)二(er)(er)股(gu)(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)三(san)(san)股(gu)(gu)后壓(ya)套第(di)(di)(di)一股(gu)(gu),向下拉緊(jin)第(di)(di)(di)一股(gu)(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)四股(gu)(gu),拉直(zhi)第(di)(di)(di)二(er)(er)股(gu)(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)三(san)(san)股(gu)(gu),即成單(dan)結。
編完備(bei)組的第(di)(di)(di)(di)一節后,改組將(jiang)第(di)(di)(di)(di)一股(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)(di)二股(gu)與第(di)(di)(di)(di)三股(gu)、第(di)(di)(di)(di)四股(gu)分別與相(xiang)鄰的另兩股(gu)組合成組,編第(di)(di)(di)(di)二排(pai)結。
3、雙結
雙(shuang)結是(shi)在(zai)打(da)完(wan)第一個(ge)(ge)單結后(hou)不(bu)改(gai)組,間隔少許(xu)距(ju)離后(hou)再編(bian)第二個(ge)(ge)同樣的結,然后(hou)各與相鄰(lin)的兩股(gu)組合(he)。連續編(bian)兩次(ci)結,即成雙(shuang)結。
4、繞格銅元眼
繞(rao)格銅元眼是單結(jie)與(yu)方格的結(jie)合。具體方法是:系在(zai)橫線上的線繩六股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)為一(yi)組,先以一(yi)、二(er)、五(wu)、六股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)編成單結(jie),再(zai)將三(san)、四(si)(si)(si)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)交(jiao)叉(cha)結(jie),第(di)三(san)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)繞(rao)第(di)五(wu)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu),第(di)六股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)拉向右邊(bian)(bian),第(di)四(si)(si)(si)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)繞(rao)第(di)二(er)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu),第(di)一(yi)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)拉向左邊(bian)(bian);如此打完(wan)(wan)一(yi)排后,將相鄰各(ge)組的中間兩股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)相互交(jiao)叉(cha)繞(rao)結(jie),將前一(yi)組的第(di)三(san)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)向右拉,與(yu)該(gai)組第(di)四(si)(si)(si)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)交(jiao)叉(cha)后繞(rao)第(di)一(yi)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)、第(di)二(er)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu),后一(yi)組第(di)四(si)(si)(si)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)向左拉,與(yu)該(gai)組第(di)三(san)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)交(jiao)叉(cha)后繞(rao)第(di)六股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)、第(di)五(wu)股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu),與(yu)前一(yi)組第(di)六股(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)(gu)相交(jiao)成結(jie),至此一(yi)個(ge)完(wan)(wan)整的繞(rao)格銅元眼編成。
二、麥秸草帽編織技法
1、整麥稈
在(zai)小麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)成(cheng)熟收割運(yun)回家時(shi),就選擇麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)稈白(bai)長的(de)麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)捆(kun)(kun)子,開(kai)始(shi)用(yong)雙手(shou)一把一把抓起來,將麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)穗向下在(zai)地上蹲齊。然(ran)后用(yong)左手(shou)提住麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)穗基(ji)部,右手(shou)拿(na)鐮刀將太短的(de)和(he)麥(mai)(mai)(mai)(mai)葉捋掉,隨(sui)手(shou)綁成(cheng)小把捆(kun)(kun)成(cheng)打(da)捆(kun)(kun),存放(fang)在(zai)通風干燥處。
2、拆麥稈挑麥稈
拆麥(mai)稈(gan)時大部(bu)分用第一節和少部(bu)第二(er)節,每節都在節前(qian)折斷,隨(sui)后開始挑(tiao)麥(mai)稈(gan),一般分為細(xi)、偏細(xi)、中(zhong)粗(cu)、較粗(cu)4種類型,分好后逐(zhu)型號綁成小把,并(bing)用剪(jian)刀減(jian)掉多余的麥(mai)穗勁(jing)前(qian)部(bu)分備用。
3、泡桿、編帽辮
泡(pao)(pao)桿一般都在早(zao)上和下(xia)午,泡(pao)(pao)桿時(shi)都用(yong)清水在大盆內(nei)或水桶里(li)泡(pao)(pao),并用(yong)石頭將麥稈壓住(zhu),使其完全浸泡(pao)(pao)在水中,需泡(pao)(pao)半小時(shi)到(dao)(dao)1小時(shi),使用(yong)前用(yong)手(shou)捏一下(xia)麥稈看是否泡(pao)(pao)到(dao)(dao)位,如泡(pao)(pao)到(dao)(dao)位即撈出把水甩(shuai)干,再用(yong)干凈濕手(shou)巾裹起來保濕。編帽(mao)辮(bian)(bian)(bian)起頭需取7根麥稈為(wei)分兩(liang)辮(bian)(bian)(bian)從偶數(shu)方用(yong)雙拇(mu)指(zhi)的指(zhi)甲編、掐(qia)而成,所以又稱(cheng)“掐(qia)帽(mao)辮(bian)(bian)(bian)”。每年(nian)的春、夏、秋、三個季節都可編帽(mao)辮(bian)(bian)(bian),帽(mao)辮(bian)(bian)(bian)有(you)細辮(bian)(bian)(bian)、偏細辮(bian)(bian)(bian)、中粗辮(bian)(bian)(bian)和粗辮(bian)(bian)(bian)4種,等到(dao)(dao)積存一定數(shu)量后,才可進入下(xia)道工序。
4、編草帽
實際(ji)在農村(cun)都叫(jiao)盤(pan)(pan)草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)子,因為制作草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)時(shi)將帽(mao)(mao)(mao)辮一(yi)圈(quan)一(yi)圈(quan)由里向外(wai)擴展(zhan)而(er)得名。在盤(pan)(pan)草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)時(shi)將選好(hao)要用(yong)(yong)(yong)的帽(mao)(mao)(mao)辮,用(yong)(yong)(yong)水浸泡10至(zhi)20分鐘撈(lao)出,甩(shuai)掉(diao)水分后開始(shi):一(yi)是選用(yong)(yong)(yong)細(xi)(xi)辮,針(zhen)穿雙股線盤(pan)(pan)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)頂,再(zai)用(yong)(yong)(yong)偏(pian)細(xi)(xi)辮盤(pan)(pan)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)籠,然(ran)后用(yong)(yong)(yong)中粗辮盤(pan)(pan)毛沿(yan),一(yi)般(ban)根(gen)據用(yong)(yong)(yong)途帽(mao)(mao)(mao)沿(yan)可大可小,大草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)直徑在60厘米左右(you),小的40厘米左右(you)收邊(bian),收邊(bian)必(bi)須用(yong)(yong)(yong)兩股針(zhen)線縫兩道才算完工。草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)盤(pan)(pan)好(hao)后,須給帽(mao)(mao)(mao)沿(yan)部分噴上水,然(ran)后在方桌上放平(ping)用(yong)(yong)(yong)吃飯碗,碗口(kou)向下,手握碗底用(yong)(yong)(yong)力在草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)上來回(hui)推磨,以達到接茬彌合。至(zhi)此一(yi)項嶄新的草(cao)帽(mao)(mao)(mao)誕生啦(la)。
