Hello everyone and welcome to Thai silk Magic.
Are you concerned or maybe not sure what fabric to use for your wedding dress?
Well then make sure you check out this important video.
We'll be exposing for the very first time exactly how our wedding dress fabric
is lovingly created.
Here you see Ja Rin Ya, one of our master weavers.
She will take about 6 days or more than 50 hours to weave this gorgeous
handmade Thai silk wedding dress fabric.
And that's just one of many steps in the process.
By the way did you see the rolled up wedding dress fabric and the 3 pedals used to
make this 3 ply silk?
So after the spinning, cleaning and the weaving of the wedding dress silk fabric
it's time to start removing it from the loom.
This is a very tricky process that takes lots of expertise, care and time.
Here you see Dao training too-ee, one of our weavers, how to do this
important part of the process.
They start by cutting the warp threads. These are the tightly stretched lengthwise
silk threads that are the very core of the silk fabric.
These threads give the fabric its body and form.
But extreme care must be taken to ensure when it's cut the tighly woven weave
is not lost.
Thats why you see Dao tying bunches of threads together after cutting.
The next step is to cut the weft or horizontal threads from the loom.
Once more this is done with great care.
These threads are sometimes called the filler threads as it fills in the design of
the silk itself.
Can you see the woven end patching that gives Dao a cutting guideline?
The unique way our weavers interweave these weft and warp threads gives our
handmade Thai silk its now famous characteristics of combining durability
and softness along with being so easy to take care of.
Hi hello everybody.
