Basically, thumping urine-soaked tweed. Only peripherally a part of the weaving process, and in a quite specific and limited context.

We really do need some specifics from Marie if we are to be helpful. As Geoff suggested, "who, what, where, when and why" would be a good start. A story about, for instance, a 19th century weaver wouldn't benefit much from 20th century songs.
