Elisabeth Lindemann, also known as Elisabeth Hablik-Lindemann (1879–1960),[1] was a German weaver, textile designer and photographer. She has been credited with creating the first modern jacquard technique. She brought traditional weaving techniques closer to contemporary tastes by modifying colors and patterns. She has been considered by experts as the "mother of hand weaving".[2]
