Production process. The process of silk production is known as sericulture. ... Extracting raw silk starts by cultivating the silkworms on mulberry leaves. Once the worms start pupating in their cocoons, these are dissolved in boiling water in order for individual long fibres to be extracted and fed into the spinning reel.

Step1: Separation of the silk fibre from the cocoon. For this, it is need to be exposed to warmth.

Piles of cocoons are kept under the sun, boiled or exposed to steam. The warmth causes the silk fibre to separate from the rest of the cocoon.

Step2: Reeling the silk, which is the process of delicately unwinding the fibre from the cocoon. Reeling is also done in special machines.

Step3: The silk thread is then bleached and dyed into many shades.
