- The wool was carded first and was then spun into thread. It was then taken to the weaver who wove it into cloth. It was then taken to the tucking mill owned by John Sullivan of Durrus and tucked. The cloth when dyed was then ready for use.
The weaver in this district was a Harrington man of Cahiroleckna. In Durrus there were two weavers whose names were Johnson. There were three weavers in Cahir, Kilcrohane who were three sisters.
