What 綕 means
Yes. 綕 is an old variant of 織. Both mean “to weave”; 织 is the standard simplified Chinese form.
The history of 綕 reaches into Western Zhou bronze inscriptions, which link a form of 戠 to 織. 說文解字, an early character dictionary, records 織; 玉篇 calls 綕 an old form. This traces the lineage, but not the first use of 綕 in this exact shape.
綕 reads as an old, source-preserving spelling rather than a standard modern form.
