The first diagram demonstrates the different stages in the life cycle of the silkworm. The second diagram shows the process how silk cloth is produced.
Overall, the life cycle of the silkworm has four stages, which begins with laying eggs and ends with appereance of a cocoon. The process of the silk cloth production have five stages. In initial stage, the cocoons are selected and finishes with weaving silk material.
The life cycle of the silkworm begins from the eggs being laid by a mother moth and from these eggs the silkworm larvae are apperead after 10 days. The larvae eat mulberry leaves and move to the third stage approximately in a month. On the next stage they make silk thread during one week. After that, they create oval cocoons. The cocoon stage duration is 16 days. In final stage they become a moth which has ability to fly and the process may starts again.
According to the second graph the fine cocoons are selected and are boiled in the water. In the next step, they are unwound to 300-900 metres of thread. After that, produced thread are twisted and dyed. The weaving is the last process which is also painted. Afterwards, silks are manufactured and can be used for particular purposes.
