How to make Cotton Yarn in V Rising

Wondering how to go about making Cotton Yarn in V Rising? Here’s exactly how to get your hands on this important resource in the survival game.

As you progress through the gothic-inspired world of V Rising, you’ll come up against hostile creatures and dangerous bosses, but gathering resources is just as crucial as fighting to survive.

Alongside Leather, Whetstone, Stone Brick, and Stone Dust, Cotton Yarn is essential to farm if you want to equip yourself with some great armor in V Rising. So this is everything you need to know about getting the resource, including where it’s found, and how to craft it.

How to make Cotton in V Rising

Before you can make Cotton Yarn, you’ll need to have 20 Cotton in V Rising.

Cotton can be gathered by using the following methods:

1. Cotton Farms:  Visible on your map, as you approach you’ll see these straight away because the cotton looks like fluffy, white clouds.
   • Take a weapon that does increased damage to vegetation such as a Sword to maximize your harvest.
2. Planting: If you acquire enough cotton seeds (by destroying barrels and objects on Cotton Farms), you can plant the reagent on your castle grounds to save running back and forth.

After you’ve collected a suitable amount of cotton, you’ll have to get yourself a Loom. This drops from the Level 38 boss, Beatrice the Tailor who can be found in Dawnbreak Village, Dunley Farmlands. We’d recommend reaching at least Level 38 in the game before you attempt to fight Beatrice.

Defeating her will net you this all-important crafting station, which you can build using the following resources:

• 12 x Copper
• 20 x Planks
• 4 x Wool Thread

Copper can be mined from nodes across the world. A great early location for this is the Farbane Woods.

Planks can be looted from enemies in a variety of locations including the Dunley Lumber Mill, Brighthaven Docks, and the Bandit Logging Camp.

Finally, you can get farm plenty of Wool Thread in Dunley Farmlands by opening chests and crates and looting defeated enemies.

Once your loom is all set up, all you need to do is feed 20 cotton into it to get Cotton Yarn.

20 pieces of cotton produce 1 Cotton Yarn, so just keep feeding cotton until you’ve got as much Yarn as you need.
