Weaving tool
|
Weaving tools are a collection of tools that allow you to create weavable items from a wide variety of treasure system or other found objects. While not necessary to use the weaving system, they enable you to use a wider variety of materials for weaving. Each tool type is capable of turning a certain category into a weavable item, such as the awl for feathers or the scissors for ribbons. Weaving tools are often sold at events like Ebon Gate. The Evermore Hollow shop The Witching Flower sells all of the available tools plus additional items related to the weaving system. The lathe can be unlocked with a certificate from Quinton Manse, also at Evermore Hollow. AwlAn awl can pierce a feather to convert it into a weavable item. Eligible feathers include those dropped by wizard familiars as well as NPC animals, like the toucan and parrot on Mist Harbor. Feathers found via a Jeepers Creepers Spyglass also work.
You analyze the polished steel awl and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun." The creator has also provided the following information: This is a tool that can be used to change a feather into a weaving item. POKE the feather with the awl. This polished steel awl may be altered with either a long or show description. The noun cannot change. The material it is made out of may be changed, but it must remain something metallic. It can also be rubbed.
LatheA lathe can carve a gemstone to convert it into a weavable item. When first released, lathes had no tiers and converted gems into beads with no other options available, however later updates added greater functionality, including a second tier that can be unlocked via certificate. Older lathes are automatically converted by using ANALYZE on them. Beads are still available as a noun for unlocked lathes. Most treasure system gems can be worked on by a lathe. Gem replicas created via the Bugs on Parade, Life Aquatic, and Jeepers Creepers systems also work.
