Processing Guide
Village in the Shade Loom Guide
The Loom turns Raw Silk, Wool and Cashmere into Silk, Cloth and Cashmere Cloth. Craft the base Loom at a Workbench with Easy Wood ×15 and Raw Silk ×3, then unlock the Upgraded Loom for capacity of up to three materials.
The short version
Raw fiber in. Textile out.
The base Loom cycle is listed as one day. The Upgraded Loom keeps that listed time and adds capacity of up to three materials. That is a capacity change, not a verified speed multiplier.

How to Unlock the Loom
The Shrine skill and the Workbench recipe are separate gates.
- 1. Reach Shrine Repair Stage 1.The canonical skill record places Loom at the first repair stage.
- 2. Learn the Loom skill.Pay Twin Magatama ×2, Child Magatama ×1 and Bronze Mirror ×1.
- 3. Gather the construction materials.You need Easy Wood ×15 and Raw Silk ×3. Easy Wood is the existing canonical resource ID
easy-to-handle-woodand is sourced from Cedar trees. - 4. Craft the Loom at a Workbench.The Workbench is the crafting station for the complete base recipe.

Textile Routes
What Can the Loom Process?
These are the three verified base Loom input families. Every route is listed at one day, while input and output quantities remain unresolved.
Processing time: 1 day. Sell price: ¥275. Input and output quantity: not verified.
Processing time: 1 day. Sell price: ¥320. Input and output quantity: not verified.
Processing time: 1 day. Sell price: ¥420. Input and output quantity: not verified.
Do not assume a 1:1 ratio for Raw Silk, Wool or Cashmere. The current processing record confirms the input, output, time and sell price, but not the quantity conversion.
Use a Silkworm Box. The upstream guide records a two-day cycle before Raw Silk is available.
This is the second step in the chain. Raw Silk is also required to build the base Loom, so plan the construction reserve first.
Input Sources
Where Do the Loom Inputs Come From?
The Loom page gives the short upstream answer and sends care or unlock questions to their owning guides.
Raw Silk
Mulberry Leaf → Silkworm Box
Grow Mulberry, load Mulberry Leaf into the Silkworm Box and wait two days. Do not use Mulberry Fruit as the documented input.
Silkworm Box guideWool
Sheep → Wool
The livestock dataset maps Sheep to Wool. Feeding, affection and product quality remain on the Livestock guide.
Livestock guideCashmere
Cashmere Goat → Cashmere
Cashmere Goat is the canonical source. Its current unlock path requires two Livestock S-rank results, owned by the livestock progression guides.
Livestock Unlocks guideUpgrade
What Does the Upgraded Loom Do?
The upgrade changes how many materials can be loaded, not the documented one-day cycle.
Verified benefit
Up to 3 materials at once
The listed processing time remains 1 day. The available sources do not define whether “up to 3 materials” means simultaneous slots, a queue or a collection rule, so this guide does not convert it into throughput math.

Comparison
Base Loom versus Upgraded Loom
Only values established by the current canonical records are shown as facts.

The upgrade requires a base Loom, Silk and Wool. Cashmere is not part of the verified upgrade recipe. Produce or obtain Silk before trying to craft the upgrade.
Uses
A Few Useful Textile Handoffs
The Loom owns textile production. Downstream recipes and delivery systems remain on their own authority pages.
Cloth
Japanese Doll recipe
The canonical Headless Japanese Doll data uses Cloth ×1 in the Japanese Doll Workbench recipe.
Headless Japanese Doll guideSilk and Cashmere Cloth
More uses remain bounded
Current canonical data confirms the outputs and sell prices, but does not provide a complete downstream use table for these two textiles.
Branding boundary
Keep delivery stock separate
Branded Wool and Branded Cashmere exist upstream. Their behavior in Loom processing is unresolved, so do not use reserved delivery materials as experiments.
Greenhouse delivery guideTroubleshooting
Why Can't I Craft or Process with the Loom?
Check the documented gates first, then keep unresolved behavior separate from a missing recipe.
Skill gate
Base Loom requires the Loom skill at Repair Stage 1. The upgrade requires the Upgraded Loom skill at Repair Stage 4.
Missing materials
Check Easy Wood ×15 and Raw Silk ×3 for the base machine. The upgrade also needs Loom ×1, Hard Wood ×20, Copper Ingot ×2, Wool ×1 and Silk ×1.
Wrong input family
Only Raw Silk, Wool and Cashmere are verified base Loom inputs. Other fibers are not added to this guide without direct support.
Timer or collection
The listed Loom cycle is one day. Exact start timing, queue behavior and collection semantics are not separately documented.
No fuel or placement answer yet
The current source set does not document fuel, indoor or outdoor placement, a maximum count or the base capacity. Do not substitute Furnace rules.
Branding is unresolved
The source set does not establish whether Branded Wool or Branded Cashmere keeps its branding after processing. Preserve delivery reserves until this is tested.
FAQ
Loom Questions
Short answers for unlocks, recipes, textile routes, capacity and unresolved edge cases.
How do I unlock the Loom?
Reach Shrine Repair Stage 1, unlock the Loom skill and pay Twin Magatama ×2, Child Magatama ×1 and Bronze Mirror ×1. Then craft the Loom at a Workbench.
What does the Loom cost to craft?
Craft the Loom at a Workbench with Easy Wood ×15 and Raw Silk ×3.
What does the Loom process?
The verified base inputs are Raw Silk, Wool and Cashmere. They become Silk, Cloth and Cashmere Cloth respectively.
How do I make Silk?
Put Raw Silk into a Loom and allow the one-day Loom cycle to finish. The source set does not verify the input or output quantity.
How do I make Cloth?
Put Wool into a Loom and allow the one-day cycle to finish. The quantity ratio is not verified.
How do I make Cashmere Cloth?
Put Cashmere into a Loom and allow the one-day cycle to finish. The quantity ratio is not verified.
What does the Upgraded Loom do?
Its verified benefit is capacity of up to three materials while the listed processing time remains one day. The sources do not define whether those are simultaneous slots or a queue.
What is the Upgraded Loom recipe?
Craft it at a Workbench with Loom ×1, Hard Wood ×20, Copper Ingot ×2, Wool ×1 and Silk ×1.
Does the Upgraded Loom process faster?
No speed increase is established. The documented improvement is capacity, not a three-times-faster cycle.
Where do I get Raw Silk, Wool and Cashmere?
Raw Silk comes from Mulberry Leaf in the Silkworm Box. Wool comes from Sheep, and Cashmere comes from the Cashmere Goat. Use the linked upstream guides for full acquisition details.
Can I process Branded Wool or Branded Cashmere safely?
The current source set confirms branded livestock products exist, but it does not establish whether Loom processing preserves branding, changes quality or creates a special textile. Do not use branded stock as a test if you need it for a delivery.
Does the Loom need fuel or allow unlimited placement?
Fuel requirements, placement rules and maximum Loom count are not documented in the current source set.
Related Guides
Keep the textile chain connected
Each guide owns its deeper system so this page can stay focused on the Loom.
Open research boundaries: Base Loom capacity is not isolated in the current source set. The phrase up to three materials does not resolve queue versus simultaneous-slot behavior. Placement rules, maximum machine count and fuel requirements are not documented. The current sources do not establish textile quality or branding preservation.
