Tailoring Specializations in Wrath of the Lich King
Tailoring is one of the few Professions in WotLK to keep its specializations,although they play a much smaller role than they did in previous expansions. All3 specializations still exist, Mooncloth Tailoring,
Spellfire Tailoring and

WotLK has 3 new cloths available at level 415 Tailoring; Ebonweave,
Moonshroud, and
Spellweave. These cloths have nearly a 4-daycooldown, making them valuable to craft every time they are available. Whicheverspecialization you pick will increase the cloth crafted from 1 to 2.
Unlocking a specialization requires you to be Level 60, have 350Tailoring skill and complete one of the quests down below.After unlocking a specialization, you are able to change between the 3 optionsfor a fee of 170g by talking with the quest givers below.
