Colonial weavers weave things. Things like basket weaving were men's jobs, maybe women, but things like weaving on looms were definitely womens' jobs. In flax production, the rippling, retting (rotting), and swingling were all men's jobs, because it was too hard for women to do.

∙ 12y agoGreat historical question. Actually weavers were not known for making a lot of money, it was the cloth merchants that did. After collecting a lot of fabric, making relationships with stores or traders, the money was made in bulk sales rather than individual bolts of cloth. But weavers could make a career out of their skills especially with weaving looms, thread spinners, and if they also had sheep to get their wool from. They would also sometimes make felt.
