January 25, the 23rd day of the lunar month, is the traditional "Little Year" in northern China. Non-hereditary inheritors in Qinghai Province have shown their unique skills, using pile embroidery, leather embroidery, paper-cutting and other forms to produce a variety of colorful and different shapes of intangible cultural heritage tigers, attracting citizens to feel the charm of intangible cultural heritage.
In Qinghai, folk embroidery crafts such as Turkish plate embroidery, Huangzhong pile embroidery, Dangerpi embroidery, and Menyuan Hui embroidery are collectively known as "green embroidery". Through protection, inheritance and development, "green embroidery" has become a unique cultural symbol of Qinghai.
