The diagram displayed the life cycle of silkworms and the use of silkworms in the production of silk cloth.
The life process of silkworm consists of 4 stages from eggs to fully become a month. And the production of silk cloth included 6 mains steps, begin with collecting the cocoon to producing the silk cloth.
A silkworm's life span begins when an adult moth laid eggs and after roughly 10 days, the eggs hatch into larvae. Then, these larvae feed themselves with mulberry leaves for 4 to 6 weeks. After that fully fed, they convert into cocoons by covering themselves with thread initiates their last stage of transformation into adults month and the cycle goes on.
The first step in the making of silk cloth is selecting the non-defected cocoon to, later on, boil them in water to remove any dirt on it. After that the cocoons are unwinded to create threads, each cocoon can produce approximately 300 to 900 meters of thread. Those threads are then either can be weaved into sheets are dyes as thread it is.
