No, it is entirely natural. It grows around the seeds of cotton plants natural to more tropical regions of the world. Only the products developed from cotton such as shirts and other fabrics are manmade.

Nope, silk is naturally made from various sources, the best known being from the larvae of the mulberry silkworm. Silk itself is actually a natural protein fibre rather than a man made product. The only manmade thing about silk is when it has been woven into patterns and fabrics.
