How to Make Linen Thread in Valheim

There are a few steps to take before you can actually make Linen Thread. Namely, you’ll need to defeat the game’s fourth boss, Moder. This will require you to explore the mountain biomes to find his altar.

Moder will drop several recipes after dying. One will be for the Spinning Wheel, which is the most important tool in your mission to make Linen Thread. You can build it with the following resources:

  • Fine wood x20
  • Iron nails x10
  • Leather scraps x5

Now you will need to feed a different material into your Spinning Wheel; namely, Flax. We have a dedicated guide for how to find Flax, but the long and the short of it is that you’ll need to head to the Fuling Village in the Plains biome and look for cultivated patches of land.

With your Linen Thread supplies, you can then craft powerful new weapons like the Black Metal Sword, Knife, and Axe, as well as the awesome Porcupine mace.

Here’s a quick recap of the process:

Time needed: 1 minute

  1. Defeat Moder, the game’s fourth boss, to earn the Spinning Wheel crafting recipe.

  2. Build a Spinning Wheel.

  3. Find Flax from the Plains biome, then feed it into your Spinning Wheel to make Linen Thread.
