As it relates to Tailoring, Looms (I believe) were only added in June 2001, I don't believe these were ever properly factored into Green timeline.  
I found that they were actually a ground spawn according to ShowEQ database, and that you had to click on the frame (the top part of it, not the threads... this caused confusion for new tradeskillers) to open it.  Not sure if they are implemented as such on P99 or may help to for updating without any patching?
Not sure if an earlier date prior to June 2001 can be found also.
First Loom Mention June 2001:

		| Found out totally by accident while fooling around with loom in Rivervale, you have to click on the *frame* of the loom to get it to open. Clicking on
 the threads did nothing, but clicking on the frame (the top cross bar if it
 matters) popped it right open.

		| Don't feel bad - the looms have only been in the game a short while, and their use is not immediately obvious.
