Women work at an embroidery workshop in Dashitou, Mulei Kazak autonomous county, Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, photo taken on July 12. In the 1980's local women developed a unique embroidery skill known as "Huyangxiu" which combines their traditional technique and China's famous Suzhou embroidery. Their products have been exported to many countries and in 2011 brought an estimated 100 million yuan to this county. Many jobs have been provided for women and incomes have been raised.
