Woven Items and Decoration
Okay, in the pre industrial time and in current poor countries, weaving was and is an easy way to make money (in those conditions because machines do it faster). It should be the same in the mod. There would be woven carpets, rugs, tapestries and other woven goods such as baskets.

The Raw Materials
Silk: Very rare and expensive, only found in Uttermost East though traders from other factions have them. When used for embroidery, the item increases in value and if able to be placed, it will have a soft glow.

Cotton: A common material for weaving, found in a flower form similar to flax. Can be used to create string as well.

These are really the new ones, There could be more of them later on.

Items
Loom:

A new block for crafting items needing weaving. More or less for everything below this on the list as well as beds, wool, banners and other current items that use wool. It acts the same as a vanilla crafting table except with the recipes. It's recipe is 2 wooden planks at the bottom, and a stick and a string on top.

Carpets:

We already have carpets in the game right, but you should have to craft them on looms, same recipe but with a string/silk. Then, if you add another string/silk (optionally a dye for the colour of the embroidery) again to the carpet you can embroid it. However, if you do it on Rhunic/Near Harad ct you can have special faction designs.

Rugs:

The same as a carpet except for a few differences. They act like full block carpets. The recipe for them is 2 wool blocks (can be dyed, but same colour), and 2 string.

Tapestries: More or less paintings but with thread. Recipe is 4 sticks on the corners, string on the sides, fwool in the middle. The tapestries wouldn't be that detailed though, mainly relying on colours for recognition. There is 8 variants; Large scale battle, takes up 6 blocks. Shows a swarm gold and blue pixels charging each other. Battle, takes up 4 blocks, shows a rohirrim killing an Orc. With warring background. Sauron leading, takes up 4 blocks, shows Sauron guiding a horde of Rhudel Easterlings (civilians). Gates of Erebor, takes up 2 blocks (vertically) and shows gates of erebor. New shores, takes up 2 blocks (horizontally), shows a boat landing in beleriland, with elves. The Deeps, takes up 2 blocks horizontally, shows a vague goblin town. The silver tree, takes up 1 block, shows the tree of Gondor The eye, takes up 1 blocks, shows the Eye of Sauron.

Cushions: Just for decoration. Cushions are crafted with 3 feathers across the middle and cotton, silk or wool on bottom and top rows. Can be dyed and embroided.

Curtains: Another decoration block, but it is actually a sort of gate block. You craft it with wool on the left and right columns and string in the middle column. Can be dyed.

Trading
There will be a new type of trader, called the weaver. He will sell woven products. However, Easterlings/Haradric ones will sell the special rugs and such.

Conclusion
Okay, that's pretty much it, a somewhat big suggestion but I hope it will add another element to the mod that is normally ignored by most. I realise this is low priority but having it will still be good. Thank you for reading.
