orion Scroll coverings



I reread a paperbound ed. of an old book on the DSS.  Principally the 
cave 1
scrolls, but also the cave 4 ones.
It was indicated that there was also found linen coverings for the 
scrolls
with patterns on them. 
There was blue thread runing in rectangular patterns.
Anyone know what the significance of the patterns was? 
Any information about the persons who wove these covers available?  Can 
we
determine where the linen originate?
Any information would be helpful.
Thank you,
