The Middle Ages

Cloth weaving during the middle ages developed swiftly. Weavers developed many clever changes to the original frame looms and shed loom systems. By the 11th century many of the weaving patterns used today had been invented. Skilled weavers developed highly specialized cloth. During this time the task of weaving cloth began slowly to move away from the family unit into specialized work places. [SB] {WW}
