Silk Museum: Video on traditional reeling and the processing of silk yarn in Soufli

Video footage on traditional reeling and the processing of silk yarn in Soufli. Mrs Despina Mourika demonstrates the traditional way of reeling (also known a "cottage reeling", i.e. unwinding the silk filament from the cocoon, feeding it into the
mandziliki, the wooden hand-driven wheel serving to wind it into a skein) at the Silk Museum and then winds the thread onto massouria (spools).
