Asking for some Scot Gaelic help

[figheadair]

"Neannaidh" is a rather old-fashioned but still used diminutive of grandmother, the exact cognate of Nanna, it seems to me.

Again, very old usage, but a female weaver/knitter would be "ban-fhigheach"

It's a mouthful, but you could say "Neannaidh a' bhan-fhigheach," for Nanna the weaver/knitter.

I'm referring to Dwelly's Faclair Gàidhlig, an on-line version of which is here.

Hope this helps!

The correct spelling is ban-fhigheadair pronounced ban-ee-at-er-- a female weaver or knitter.

An old female knitter would be sean bhan fhigheadair pronounced shoawn van-ee-at-er-
