Silk is a soft thread-like fiber spun by silkworms.
Silk fibres are animal fibres obtained from cocoons of the silkworm. The rearing of silkworms for obtaining silk is called sericulture. It is a very old occupation in India.
reeling the silk:
When the cocoons are kept under the sun or boiled or exposed to steam, the silk fibres separate out. The process of taking out threads from the cocoons for use as silk is called reeling the silk. It is done in special machines, which unwind the thread or fibres of silk from the cocoon.
