•  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.

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.

Draw
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
understandthey 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
