Silk is a natural protein fiber, some forms of which can be woven into textiles. The protein fiber of silk is composed mainly of fibroin and is produced by certain insect larvae to form cocoons.The best-known silk is obtained from the cocoons of the larvae of the mulberry silkworm Bombyx mori reared in captivity (sericulture). The shimmering appearance of silk is due to the triangular prism-like structure of the silk fibre, which allows silk cloth to refract incoming light at different angles, thus producing different colors.#katiea #silk #wild #silk (at CHAK Islampur)

#katiea #silk #fabric #khadi #fabric our first and last fabric love has always been khadi. Along with the other astounding artisan products found in India, khadi is celebrated today, and hopefully on all days, as a great Heritage Craft. But it is our view that the celebrated artisan skills of India are not only heritage skills; they are actually survival skills. They are not only the past; they are also the future. Every time an Indian artisan gives up his work, or fails to pass it on to a younger person, the world takes another small step toward a future of uncertainty. (at CHAK Islampur)
