Types of Cloth and Leather

There are 4 types of cloth, with different properties:

• normal
• silverweave -> silver : undead slaying / repulsion
• goldweave -> gold : lightsource
• darkweave -> blackrock : more defense

There are 3 types of leather, with different properties:

• normal
• boiled -> copper : lighter, more defence
• studded -> adamantium : even more defence

How to make normal/coloured cloth, leather and sewing kits.

Ask an alchemist to combine silver ore/gold nuggets/treated blackrock and spider's silk to create silverweave/goldweave/darkweave thread. Goldweave, for exampple takes one nugget, and 5 silks to make 5 threads, at around skill 50. Then, a skilled tilor combines the thread with normal cloth by means of a sewing kit to make the tinted cloth.

Leather and boiled leather is made out of cowhide by a tailor, using scissors. Studded leather is made out of studs and leather by a skilled tailor using a sewing kit. Studs are made by a killed tinkerer out of ingots.

There are tinted sewing kits - get a skilled tinkerer to make them from normal ingots. (Boiled kit is currently called copper until fixed.)

Repairing leather weapons

Drop your weapon on the ground and use (shift+u) a sewing kit on the item. (Only slings for now.)
