Fine. The noted Khajiit tapestry maker Cherim is known to have lived there towards the end of the Third Era.

From Minutes of the Lusty Argonian Historical Society
Jo'Hamiir suggests that Arielle look at the works of some obscure and irrelevant Khajiit who hid some kind of secret message in tapestries. The significance of these hidden messages is lost to the LAHS as the betmer rambles (for longer than it takes me to go through two mugs!) about fanciful relationships between the constellations and the moons and towers of all kinds.
From Cherim's heart of Anequina
Contemporary with Maqamat Lusign (interviewed in volume seventeen of this series) is the Khajiti Cherim, whose tapestries have been hailed as masterpieces all over the Empire for nigh on thirty years now. His four factories located throughout Elsweyr make reproductions of his work, but his original tapestries command stellar prices. The Emperor himself owns ten Cherim tapestries, and his representatives are currently negotiating the sale of five more.

It seems he's not just a common tapestrist. He has some secrets interesting the Emperor himself. Perhaps is it a matter for a quest a la DaVinci Code?

Maybe so.
