Cloth

Items used when making Cloth: Balls of Yarn, Cloth, Bolts of Cloth, Flax, Cotton, Wool

Cloth is an important material for tailoring, and is made from Flax, Cotton and Wool. Cloth is made in stages, and each stage can be used for crafting.

Clothing and Boats require cloth in their crafting. Also used for certain magical purposes.

You use Balls of Yarn with a Loom to create Bolts of Cloth, which can be cut into plain pieces of Cloth with a sewing kit.

• 'Bolts of Cloth
• Balls of Yarn
• Bolts of Cloth, big rolls of cloth, they are the best way to store cloth in large quantities
• Cloth, cut from the big bolts

Stages of creating Cloth

There are three stages to the creation of cloth.

1. Turning Flax/Cotton/Wool into Balls of Yarn
2. Turning Balls of Yarn into Bolts of Cloth
3. Turning Bolts of Cloth into Cloth

The table below shows the maximum amount of materials that can be converted at once, with the added minimum required at the end. The game will always seek to convert the maximum amount.

What you have	will become	Minimum Exchange
100 Flax/Cotton/Wool	60 Balls of Yarn	10 = 6
10 Balls of Yarn	4 Bolts of Cloth	-
100 Bolt of Cloth	2500 Cloth	1 = 25
2500 Cloth	50 Bolts of Cloth	50 = 1

• You are able to convert Cloth back into Bolts of Cloth by double-clicking the Cloth, but you will loose half the material.
• Best to store cloth in the form of Bolts of Cloth, it takes less space

Harvesting Materials

You will need materials to begin with, and you can choose to work with the following:

• Flax, harvested from fields that grow Flax plants
• Cotton, harvested from fields that grow Cotton plants
• Wool, harvested from Sheep and Goats using a Dagger

Both the plants and animals will regrown their resources after a while. The fields outside of Britain are a good place to start.

• Double-clicking cloth lets you turn the cloth into Bolts of Cloth, but loosing half the cloth in the progress
• Cutting Bolts of Cloth with scissors are actually the greatest value when creating bandages
• Carpenters need Bolts of Cloth when making ships (for the sails).

Piece of Cloth
