Try: Above is the simple method of knotting the grass knot in the Chinese knot. After making the grass knot, cut the 5 outer loops as shown in the diagram, and then undo all the knots. See how many pieces the rope is cut into. Think: The diagram shows the work of Xiaolan Hua, a master of Chinese knotting. She used one rope to make such a beautiful butterfly knot. If each of the 7 loops on the butterfly's two large wings is cut in one cut, and then all the knots are undone, into how many pieces is the rope cut?
