Atlas (Arab.- flat, smooth) is a one- face smooth fabric woven from natural silk with tanda thread and jute thread. Tanda thread is decorated by dyeing in the abrbandi method. Specially processed, the satin is given a shine, so it is polished. In the past, the surface of the fabric was beaten, now satin is passed through a drum with a hot surface – a calender. Uzbek satins are rich in colorful and elegant flowers, these flowers are combined with each other and form a beautiful pattern on the fabric. The best type of satin woven from natural silk is called eight- thread satin. The whole secret of Khonatlas lies in its structure and method 
of weaving. Weaving process of satin: four- thread satin is woven on a four- thread loom, eight- thread Atlas is woven on an eight- thread loom. The flowers are raised on the stem so that every eight threads of the stem overlap in the weaving, the threads are coordinated with the rods, and the flowers are connected to the toys. When the kick is pressed, one of the gula is pulled down, the komi of one of the threads lying on top of each other is opened, and the first rope thread passes through it. In this way, eight threads fall one on top of each other between eight threads, and the thread of the body is placed on top of the fabric, and the 
fabric becomes one face.
