Si-Ling-Chi, intelligent and curious Chinese Queen, wife of the Emperor Hoang-Ti, became interested in a few small worms which she found in her garden, eating mulberry leaves. One day, accidentally dropping a cocoon into a bowl of hot water, she noticed that the gum around the cocoon softened and loose threads of silk began to appear. Si-Ling-Chi pulled at the threads— one and then another and another—and this discovery, showing how the silk threads may be taken from the cocoon, later led to China's far-spread fame as a silk nation. Many legendary tales are told of how foreign nations tried to smuggle the eggs into their own countries. Today, wherever the scene, women who “know” are wearing silk.
