Optical birefringence measurements are used to characterize how the molecular order of spider (Nephila clavipes) major ampullate silk is affected by linear spinning rate, by the extent of post-spin drawing, and by post-spin drawing rate. Results are interpreted qualitatively in terms of a simple mic
