weavers were people that would transform the fiber into threads and then weave those threads into the cloth.

cloth would be sold to taylors in cities, or directly to the citizen, to create clothes.

however, not everyone could affort a Taylor and most more modest houses would have their maid or wifes / daughters do this kind of work.

Where did the weavers live in the the middle ages?

In the early middle ages weaving was a home craft practiced by peasants in the villages. Later in the middle ages as towns and cities grew in size and number weaving became a full time profession. This was in part due to development of more complex looms that a typical peasant would not have in their possession. These weavers organized into guilds like other trades. They lived in towns and cities. They rented a shop which in most cases had living quarters above or behind it. They probably sold their product to merchants rather than directly to the public, as cloth from the loom must go through a finishing process known as fulling and then to a dyer, both separate professions, before being ready for sale to the public.
