I bought the cocoon silk one instead of other cheaper options following the good reviews. Both the polyphemus moth and luna moth wrap the cocoon in a leaf, and often the leaf falls to the ground, but occasionally the cocoon remains attached. The silk thread (yarn) is obtained from the silk moth's cocoon.

A silk moth waves its cocoon to grow they make it from the thread like structure coming form their mouth.

The silkworm is the larva or caterpillar of a silk moth. The production starts by collecting filaments from a mulberry silk moth's cocoon. Bombyx mori, the domestic silk moth, is an insect from the moth family bombycidae. Very excited by this find, i housed the caterpillar in a roomy hamster cage.
