How to Make Linen Thread in Valheim

In this Valheim guide, we’ll tell you how to make linen thread, recipes that use the material and how to find materials to create linen.

In the Viking-inspired world of Valheim, Clothes are a vital part of your armor and to make clothes, you need Linen. In this Valheim guide, we’ll tell you how to make linen thread, recipes that use linen and how to find flax. So, without any further ado, let’s get started.

How to Make Linen Thread in Valheim

Linen is used in armor and several weapons as well. Weapons like a Black metal sword, black metal knife, black metal axe, padded helmet, Porcupine Mace, etc. Linen is a very rare yet very important resource in Valheim.

You must have defeated the fourth boss- The Moder and must have the black metal if you want to make Linen Thread in Valheim.

Black metal is easily available from the start and Flax Seeds can be grown in the Plains biome, around the Fuling camps.

Now you might be thinking what is Flax?

Well, Flax is a crop that is used for making linen threads. We use these linen threads for upgrading armors and weapons in Valheim.

Flax Location

You will find this plant in the plains biome mostly close to the Fuling camps. You will find this pretty easily but one thing you have to be careful of is Fulings. These are pretty tough to fight if you find them in groups.

You may also find filing Shamans and Brutes while looking for flax. These all are just like goblins.  Watch out for them to get the Flax from that area and convert it into the Linen threads using the Spinning wheel.

How to Make a Spinning Wheel

By defeating The Moder Boss, you will get to know a few recipes, including the Spinning Wheel Recipe.

With the recipe, make a Spinning Wheel, for which you will need an Artisan Table, and feed the Flax Seed to the opening at the back of the Spinning Wheel. That will make Linen Thread for you.
