Taking it a little further, if you wove those strips together -- kind of like a little basket -- you could make a shape-retaining sheet, and then you could embed it in a cloth: so you could make a picnic sheet that wraps around the table, so that way on a windy day it wouldn't blow away.
再讲个远点儿的， 如果你将这些带子编在一起，像编竹篮那样， 你就做个保持型状的，这样你可以罩块儿布， 成为个野餐桌， 这样即便有风也不会被刮走。
