What is a silk?

Silk is a natural fiber that is produced by the domestication of the mules, a type of horse that was originally from the Mediterranean region. The most common form of silk is raw silk, which is not processed. The process of silk production starts by reeling the silk mulberry plant into a ropelike form. The ropelike silk is then drawn through a series of drums, which helps to break it down into finer fiber strands. Next, silk is dyed a variety of colors and processed into different types of silk, such as filament silk, mulberry silk, and ropy silk.
