Short German-language article by F. M. Feldhaus on the weaver and the tapestry maker (Teppichmacher) in the age of Hans Sachs. It centers on a woodcut by Jost Amman from the 1568 book of trades, 'Eygentliche Beschreibung Aller Stände auff Erden', and quotes Hans Sachs's verses for the weaver and the tapestry maker. It explains archaic textile terms such as Handzwehl, Facilet, Bettziechen and gmödelt, and notes that carpets then served as wall hangings, floor coverings and bed and table covers.
