6. From Silkworms to Cocoons
Silkworm is a kind of natural insect. It comes
out from 2 millimeters egg and then grows into 10
millimeters black worm. People feed them
painstakingly by using leaves of natural white
mulberry,each silkworm will eat about 30-40g for
the whole life. When growing to nearly 40
millimeters, the black silkworms turn into the white
cocoon. It need about 22-26 days from hatching to
cocoon. The location for raising should be indoor,
and full of sunshine, ventilated and sterilized
frequently. Person not concerned are not allowed
to go. Otherwise the survival rate will be low, and
the quality of cocoons will be not up to much.
8. Reeling
*The process taking silk out of silkworm cocoon
called silk reeling.
*The original reeling method is to immersed cocoon in
boiled water for about 20mins, Hand-drawn silk from
the cocoon constantly, then winding it on the silk
basket. baskets are the original reeling apparatus. One
kilogram cocoon can product about 0.3 kilogram raw
silk. The thickness of silk depends on the material
needed.

Handmade silk carpet pattern mainly contain Chinese pattern and Persian
pattern , chinese patterns is more using the ancient Chinese paintings,
myths and legends, "biblical" story as a theme, the extensive use of Chinese
traditional auspicious patterns, each pattern has a different meaning.
Designers design and draw the pattern, and then transformed the patterns
into drawings that hand-woven carpet technician can understand:they
enlarged the drawing according to the size of the carpet, made blueprints,
above is box one after another, each with a different symbol logo, it
represents a different colors of yarn, weavers must follow the blueprint to
weave.

12. Dyeing line
Dyeing, the former dye is extracted from natural plants, minerals. using
the old dyeing technology, the natural silk at nature temperature accept
attachment of plant pigments for a long time , accept an excellent
protection layer, now it is often combined with the application of
chemical synthetic dye to increase the diversity of colors.

13. Hang the warp
The vertical lines wrapped between of the upper and lower beams
paralleling to each other , these vertical lines called warp . The odd and
the even silk warp was separated by a tabular ledger , Tightening warp
forming warp tension, the crossbar which separate the odd warp and
even warp called “zheng”。 Hanging the wrap in a rectangular frame -
machine beams . Wind the warp around the upper and lower horizontal
beam one by one according to a fixed distance, warp density determines
the texture of the carpet, the more the warp the more dense and clear
the pattern, of course, the greater workload.

14. base
Knitter thread a silk yarn across the entire interval of a warp mesh from
left to right , this horizontal interspersed up to eight or nine times , This
line is called the transverse weft . This simple technique form a
basis ,protecting the tie point of the silk yarn which form the blanket
later, the foundation called "Kerim" or "foundation" , also the starting
point of weaving the ear. Even a narrow foundation can also keep the
hand knot from spread. After the formation of one to six inches of the
foundation, weaver started the first row of weavers knot, after two to
three rows of knots, again thread a weft across the warp alternately, and
then use a comb-like metal tool weft down to compact the yarn, also
compact the knots below the weft , all these are the reasons why
oriental rugs are so strong.
15. Knitting
When beginning to weave a new carpet, weavers will not immediately
use the color line to knot , first weave a few centimeters smooth strip
that seems like canvas ,then follow the blueprint, knot with different
colors of yarn on the warp . Then cut the silk yarn with a special knife
wool, forming a pile, when finish the first row,tightening the yarn, the
warp forming a cross (carpet with tightening the warp is more
thick ,using more yarn ,hard)compacted the silk yarn with a special iron
comb after you thread a weft silk, in this way ,one row finished,carpet
weaving is from the point to the line by line to the surface, exquisite
carpets will take shape little by little.

16. Knitting fringe
Remove the finished carpet from the
weaving frame , and knitting the excess
warp into the ear.
17. Flat shears
After finished weaving ,it is flat shearing , according to the carpet pattern,
the position of control , depth, angle, trim out the surface with smooth effect

19. Shaping
Place the carpet in ventilated place to dry it naturally, and
use a special rack to straighten the skew latitude and
longitude lines or edges .
