Khmer Silk processes


On Tuesday June 2011, my friends and I went to shoot some standalone photos at Arey Khsat Island of Kandal province. We shot some photos about how to produce Khmer Silk there. It looks quite good and surprising.
According to Chan dara, owner of Silk Work Textile For Khmer Traditional Silk, said that in her commune, there is no one who is working on such a feeding worms; however, plenty of families are weaving and selling their final products.
Chan Dara's family has started this work for three generations since her great grand mother.

Chan Dara continued that she bought those worms from Seim Reap province. Before, she just fed only 150 worms but now up to maybe 7000 worms since now on.
