Spinning threads from silkworm cocoons
Joya Medok Doley demonstrates the process of extracting silk threads from a silkworm cocoon bundle called takuri kénam. The silkworms are fed green leaves and kept in a dark room to mature. Once they have formed cocoons, the cocoons are grouped and rolled in a bamboo roller called takpín. From the takpín, silk threads are extracted into a second roller which is thinner, called poːpi.
