What are some uses for silk today? Have there been any changes in the way silk cloth is manufactured?

Thx for the answers.!!

Answer 1

Uses?  Mafia sport shirts, short-lived boxers, neckties.

Silkworms are from Asia because that's where the species developed.

Answer 2

Insulation from iron...

Seriously, breathe through it to decrease rate of dehydration.

Yes, probably.  I don't think silk would be so inexpensive (relatively), if it were still made by hand and cultured in families' attics.

Do you have any idea what silk worms eat?!

Answer 3

have no idea
