How to Weave

Beginning Your Chain

The two items you choose to start your chain will be the long description of your created item. The show of the item will display how many items you used to weave your creation, as well as what types of items and how many of each.

>glance
You glance down to see an intricately woven circlet of pale pink cherry blossoms and pink sapphire beads in your right hand.

>look at my circlet
The woven circlet has 22 things woven into it, among which you see many pale pink cherry blossoms and a few pink sapphire beads.
>glance
You glance down to see a loosely woven bracelet of bright orange aspen and spear-shaped willow leaves in your right hand.

>look at chain
The woven bracelet has 3 things woven into it, among which you see one bright orange aspen leaf, one spear-shaped willow leaf and one yellow primrose.

Using Two Different Items

To begin weaving, typically you would weave <item> with MY <item>.

>glance
You glance down to see a sprig of bleeding-heart in your right hand and a bronze-veined yellow oak leaf in your left hand.

>weave leaf with my bleeding-heart
You weave a bronze-veined yellow oak leaf together with a sprig of bleeding-heart.
Roundtime: 3 sec.

>glance
You glance down to see a woven chain of bronze-veined yellow oak leaves and bleeding-heart in your right hand.

>look at chain
The woven chain has 2 things woven into it, among which you see one bronze-veined yellow oak leaf and one sprig of bleeding-heart.

Using Two Similar Items

If you are trying to weave two leaves of the same type together, you would weave my leaf with my other leaf.
*For some reason, beginning a chain with two types of flowers does not seem to work. If there is a way, please edit this.

>glance
You glance down to see a spear-shaped willow leaf in your right hand and a spear-shaped willow leaf in your left hand.

>weave my leaf with my other leaf
You weave a spear-shaped willow leaf together with a spear-shaped willow leaf.

>look at chain

Continuing Your Chain

Once you have begun your chain, adding items to it is relatively simple. You just need to decide what you want to add and what you want to make.

>glance
You glance down to see a yellow primrose in your right hand and a woven chain of bright orange aspen and spear-shaped willow leaves in your left hand.

>weave chain with primrose
You weave a yellow primrose into a woven chain of bright orange aspen and spear-shaped willow leaves.
Roundtime: 3 sec.

Choosing Your Creation

In order to choose what you want to make, you need to TURN CHAIN, until you get the desired item. If you have weaved the necessary amount of items into your chain, you are ready to finish your creation. If you have not, it will tell you that you need to add to it before you can finish it.

>turn chain
You turn the woven chain over in your hands, pondering how best to pull it into a circlet.

>pull chain
You consider the length of the woven chain and figure you need to weave a few more objects into it before you could pull it into a circlet.
>turn chain

Finishing Your Creation

Once you have weaved all the necessary items into your chain and are ready to finish your creation, you need to PULL CHAIN. It will ask you to confirm your choice, so you PULL CHAIN again.

>pull chain
[You are about to turn the woven chain into a loosely woven bracelet.  If you are certain you wish to do this, just PULL the chain again in the next 30 seconds.]

>pull chain
You gather the ends of the chain and carefully weave them together to form a loosely woven bracelet of bright orange aspen and spear-shaped willow leaves.
Roundtime: 5 sec.
