This is how natural silk has been made in Asia since ancient times. Those things that look like cheese puffs are actually cocoons spun by caterpillars. Inside, nature works its magic—through metamorphosis, they turn into butterflies.

Some cocoons are saved to keep the cycle going. After mating, the butterflies lay eggs, which hatch into caterpillars that feed on mulberry leaves and grow super fast.

The rest of the cocoons are boiled to kill the chrysalises inside and extract the silk.

The silk moth was domesticated from a wild moth native to Asia. Nowadays, it's raised in many parts of the world for its cocoon, which is made of a super long silk thread.
