===Feather===
<pre{{log2}}>
You analyze your penguin feather and sense that a talented merchant can alter this weavable feather. Merchants will require that the feather remain some type of item that makes sense for weaving with other similar items to eventually form an item like a garland or anklet. Appropriate items are flowers, ribbons, leaves, string, and the like. When weaving, only the adjective and noun will matter, so bear this in mind. Right now, this feather, when woven, will show up as a "soft grey penguin feather," and if there is more than one, you will end up with some "soft grey penguin feathers."

Weaving was released in 2006 as "Secrets of the Wavedancer". Weaving gives the user the opportunity to create wearable items with flowers, herbs, pelts, leaves, gemstones, feathers, and ribbons.

Weaving tools are often sold at events like Ebon Gate.

Tools

You do not need any tools to weave. Tools enable you to use a wider variety of materials to weave, but are not necessary to weave simple items.

Awl

This is a tool that can be used to change a feather into a weaving item.

Analyze

You analyze your slender 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 slender 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.

Usage

Verb First Third
Poke (feather with awl) You set the slender steel awl against the quill of your penguin feather and begin to turn it rapidly! Creating a small hole in its end, you stop turning the awl and blow away the dust your action created. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!

Feather

You analyze your penguin feather and sense that a talented merchant can alter this weavable feather.  Merchants will require that the feather remain some type of item that makes sense for weaving with other similar items to eventually form an item like a garland or anklet.  Appropriate items are flowers, ribbons, leaves, string, and the like.  When weaving, only the adjective and noun will matter, so bear this in mind.  Right now, this feather, when woven, will show up as a "soft grey penguin feather," and if there is more than one, you will end up with some "soft grey penguin feathers."

To get the full benefit of this feather, you can try to WEAVE it WITH another similarly weavable item.

Lathe

This is a tool that can be used to change a gem into a bead with the weaving script attached. A lathe with unlocks has also been released, allowing one to make additional items such as: disk, nodule, bauble, orb in shapes such as: carved, silver-chased, gold-chased, rune-incised, and faceted.

Analyze

Locked
You analyze your polished steel lathe 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 gem into a bead with the weaving script attached.  You can POINT the lathe at a gem to see what the result would be and CUT the gem with the lathe to make a bead.

This polished steel lathe 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.
Unlocked
You analyze your polished steel lathe 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 gem into a bead with the weaving script attached.  You can POINT the lathe at a gem to see what the result would be and CUT the gem with the lathe to make a bead.

This lathe is unlocked and can be TURNed to add style to the beads, or FLIPped to add a bead type.  It could have up to two custom styles added by a skilled merchant.

An oak-hafted polished steel lathe is currently 2 of 2 tiers.

This polished steel lathe 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.

Usage

Verb First Third
CUT (gem with lathe) You set the blue moonstone in your polished steel lathe, and make it go!

A blue moonstone bead pops out and falls into your left hand.

This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!

Bead

Analyze

You analyze your blue moonstone bead and sense that a talented merchant can alter this weavable bead.  Merchants will require that the bead remain some type of item that makes sense for weaving with other similar items to eventually form an item like a garland or anklet.  Appropriate items are flowers, ribbons, leaves, string, and the like.  When weaving, only the adjective and noun will matter, so bear this in mind.  Right now, this bead, when woven, will show up as a "blue moonstone bead," and if there is more than one, you will end up with some "blue moonstone beads."

To get the full benefit of this bead, you can try to WEAVE it WITH another similarly weavable item.

Scissors

This is a tool that can be used to trim ribbons so that they can be woven.

Analyze

>analyze my scissors
You analyze your sterling silver scissors and sense that it may be altered with either a long or show description.  Based on the design, you realize that changing the noun would be impossible.  While the material it is made out of may be changed, you sense that making it anything other than metallic would be useless and would weaken the integrity of the scissors.

Usage

Verb First Third
CUT (ribbon with scissors) Trimming the edges of your crushed silk ribbon, you carefully cut it with your sterling silver scissors. This section has not been added yet; please add to it now!

Ribbon

Analyze

You analyze your crushed silk ribbon and sense that a talented merchant can alter this weavable ribbon.  Merchants will require that the ribbon remain some type of item that makes sense for weaving with other similar items to eventually form an item like a garland or anklet.  Appropriate items are flowers, ribbons, leaves, string, and the like.  When weaving, only the adjective and noun will matter, so bear this in mind.  Right now, this ribbon, when woven, will show up as a "jet black crushed silk ribbon," and if there is more than one, you will end up with some "jet black crushed silk ribbons."

To get the full benefit of this ribbon, you can try to WEAVE it WITH another similarly weavable item.

Shears

This is a tool that can be used to trim pelts into a weaving item.

Analyze

You analyze your oak-handled shears and sense that it may be altered with either a long or show description.  Based on the design, you realize that changing the noun would be impossible.  While the material it is made out of may be changed, you sense that making it anything other than metallic would be useless and would weaken the integrity of the shears.
Verb First Third

Skin

Analyze

You analyze your troll skin and sense that a talented merchant can alter this weavable skin.  Merchants will require that the skin remain some type of item that makes sense for weaving with other similar items to eventually form an item like a garland or anklet.  Appropriate items are flowers, ribbons, leaves, string, and the like.  When weaving, only the adjective and noun will matter, so bear this in mind.  Right now, this skin, when woven, will show up as a "scrap of troll skin," and if there is more than one, you will end up with some "scraps of troll skin."

To get the full benefit of this skin, you can try to WEAVE it WITH another similarly weavable item.

Snips

This is a tool that can be used to trim flowers and herbs so that they can be woven. 

You analyze your slender snips and sense that it may be altered with either a long or show description.  Based on the design, you realize that changing the noun would be impossible.  While the material it is made out of may be changed, you sense that making it anything other than metallic would be useless and would weaken the integrity of the snips.

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.
*You must begin your chain with a leaf and a flower or two leaves, unless you have a tool that enables the use of other materials. 

>glance

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.
