Enshrouded's mid-game becomes significantly more accessible with the introduction of linen, a versatile resource crafted from flax found in Embervale's northern Revelwood region. However, before diving into the crafting process, completing the "The Hunter's Hand Spindle" quest is essential.
To obtain the Hunter's hand spindle, venture into the spider-infested cave north of the Ancient Spire - Revelwood Fast Travel tower. Upon retrieval, you can install the new workbench in your base, setting the stage for the fabric-crafting journey.

Where and How to Farm Flax
Linen production begins with the harvest of flax, identifiable by its tall, blue flowers scattered around the Revelwood biome. While villages in the region may have flax farms, establishing your own ensures a steady supply. Farming flax in Enshrouded involves a systematic approach. Ensure the presence of both the Farmer and the Alchemist in your base, along with a grinding stone from the Alchemist (10 flintstone and 15 stone).
Follow these steps:
- Create bonemeal from animal bones at the grinding stone.
- Use bonemeal and dirt to produce farm soil with the Farmer.
- Craft a seedbed (10 wood logs, 2 metal scraps, and 10 farm soil) with the Farmer.
- Place the seedbed inside or outside your base and select the flax seedlings recipe.
- Produce flax seedlings using 2 water and 1 flax for every 10 seedlings.
- Plant the seedlings in the ground, and within an in-game day or two, they will mature, ready for harvesting.
This process transforms a few wild flax into a thriving farm, ensuring a continuous supply of linen.
How to Get and Use Linen
With harvested flax in hand, head to the Hunter's hand spindle. There, you can effortlessly convert 2 flax into 1 linen, a crucial material for numerous mid-game recipes. Linen plays a pivotal role in Enshrouded's mid-game progression. It is an essential component for crafting the medium backpack expansion, the advanced glider, and the bronze axe.
Furthermore, linen is a requirement for crafting various armor sets, including the Blacksmith's Valiant Shield, Hero's Shield, and mid-game sets for the Hunter, Sharpshooter, Ranger, Magician, Healer, Mercenary, Tank, and Adventurer. Incorporate linen into your crafting endeavors to unlock new possibilities and enhance your gameplay experience.
