| You start with silk worms in cocoons... |
 |
| Here the silk worms are saying hello... |
 |
| They are given chopped up mulberry leaves to eat... |
 |
| Trays and trays of worms... |
 |
| The cocoons are put into hot water and the silk thread is taken off and spun... |
 |
| Metres and metres of thread in stunning colours... |
 |
| Intricate embroidery done by hand, 8 hour days for the staff... |
 |
| Each time I see the people who do this, I am amazed. They take a photo, and skilfully turn it into a beautifully worked piece of art made of thread... |
