Wang Jiao may have thought herself stupid because she had never done any needlework, but she was not stupid at all. Under Feng Qingxue's guidance, she quickly learned how to use a sewing machine, how to cut and sew clothes, how to button, how to make soles of shoes, and other basic skills. She also learned how to design and cut shoe patterns.
Though her stitches were crooked, some loose and some tight, and her buttoning was not delicate, she eventually learned.
The thing she learned to do fastest and best was surprisingly knitting sweaters!
Feng Qingxue picked up a needle and knitted a few rounds. It was a new pattern not yet seen at the time, but very common in the future. She didn't know the exact name of the pattern, once knitted, it would form little flowers on the sweater, unlike the plain knitting pattern of the present without any decorations.
Wang Jiao watched for a while and thought it was beautiful, so she wanted to learn. As a result, she quickly picked it up.
