Weavers

This page updated November 4, 2005




Weavers were persons who wove fabric and sometimes carpets. Many of them were talented enough to determine just exactly how much thread it would take to produce a specific quantity of fabric. The customers were required to bring the wool to the weaver for them to weave it into material to use for other reasons.
