Hoi An Silk Weaving Classes And Workshop – Hoi An Handicraft tour

Come to Hoi An, tourists will have a chance to understand the Hoi An Silk Road from many centuries ago. Hoi An is famous for trade markets in the XVI-XVII centuries. 

To witness the process of how to make silk fabrics? Let Hoi An Tours take you to visit the mulberry growing facility, and silkworm rearing, and admire the process of making silk through the Hoi An Silk Embroidery classes and workshop tour.

More interesting, the Hoi An Handicraft tour will take you to visit the silk workshop and the weaving process of the Cham people. Furthermore, you will experience collecting mulberry leaves to feed the silkworms, cooking the cocoons, and weaving silk yourself. It’s a fantastic activity on the tour that clearly shows how the Champa people work with silk. 

Let’s Hoi An Tours help you to understand the silk processing step by step as below:

Sericulture

The production of silk begins with the cultivation of silkworms. The process of raising silkworms is called sericulture. The silkworms are fed a diet of mulberry leaves and are kept in a controlled environment until they spin their cocoons.

Harvesting the cocoons

The cocoons are harvested once the silkworms have completed their transformation into moths. The cocoons are then sorted and graded based on their quality.

Removing the silk

The cocoons are then boiled in water to kill the silkworms and loosen the silk fibers. The fibers are then carefully unwound from the cocoons using a machine or by hand.

Silk spinning

The silk fibers are then spun into thread or yarn using a spinning wheel or machine.

Dyeing the silk

The silk thread or yarn may be dyed at this stage using natural or synthetic dyes.

Weaving the silk

The silk thread or yarn is then woven into the fabric using a loom. The resulting fabric can be used for a wide range of applications, from clothing to home decor.

Finishing the silk

The final step involves finishing the silk fabric, which may include processes such as washing, steaming, or pressing to give it the desired texture and appearance.

The process of silk making is labor-intensive and requires a great deal of skill and expertise. However, the result is a luxurious and beautiful fabric that is highly prized around the world.

After the tour, you can buy silk products for yourself or gifts for your friends and relatives with your time. There are many beautiful silk products made from silkworms, such as scarves, evening gowns, dresses, ties, purses, hats, etc.
