?Silk does for the body what diamonds do for the hand?. Since ancient times, silk has been a popular fabric type. One of the world's strongest natural materials is thought to be silk. In the past, worms were used to manufacture silk garments. However, there have been changes in their manufacturing processes over time. Today, several distinct varieties of silk are created using various methods and resources. As a result, we can be certain that not all silks are created equal. The Process One of the most expensive kinds of natural silk is mulberry silk. Its uniqueness comes from how it is produced. The Bombyx mori moth's silkworms are used to produce mulberry silk. To promote growth, the silkworms only consume mulberry leaves as food. When they reach adulthood, they stop eating and start spinning their cocoon to perform their magic. Only one strand of silk, roughly 100 metres long and kept together by natural glue is produced by each silkworm.
