????A brief history of weaving:

The history of weaving is one that women largely dominate. Women from all over the world from many different cultures created useful and decorative objects through masterful weaving. A practice that transitioned from branches, twigs, and plant fibers to wool, cotton, and acrylic, weaving is a craft that is enjoyed by many.
