Overview

WEAVER

Weavers take raw materials and make cloth, baskets, or tapestries out of them. Weavers are important to Tailors, as many tailors don't have the skills to actually weave the cloth, they only have the skills to create garments from the cloth. Weavers might work out of a shop, on a cooperative basis, or they might work independently from home. They could sell their cloth to a tailor, or to the market.

They can also create tapestries, and baskets.

Equipment

A weaver needs Weaver's Tools in order to practice their trade. Their "tools" consist mainly of a loom, and such ingredients as cotton, flax, silk, wool, papyrus plants, pema, and the occasional scrap of lumber. As a loom is very heavy, it's preferable for a weaver to have a home or shop to work from. Looms definitely don't fit in a backpack. These items can be purchased from the forum or, arrangements can be made with PC farmers for regular supplies and role-play.
