Loom
A loom — weaving many threads into one cloth — often touches the slow making of a shared life, vexed by idle talk or cheered by congenial company. The dream may ask what you're patiently weaving together with another, and whether the threads of your tastes and lives are drawing closer or snarling.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for loom, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of standing by and seeing a loom operated by a stranger, denotes much vexation and useless irritation from the talkativeness of those about you. Some disappointment with happy expectations are coupled with this dream.
To see good-looking women attending the loom, denotes unqualified success to those in love. It predicts congenial pursuits to the married. It denotes you are drawing closer together in taste.
For a woman to dream of weaving on an oldtime loom, signifies that she will have a thrifty husband and beautiful children will fill her life with happy solicitations.
To see an idle loom, denotes a sulky and stubborn person, who will cause you much anxious care.
