If you’re looking for new cosmetic clothing items inStardew Valley, there’s no better place to look than at the Sewing Machine. you’re able to use an astoundingly long list of items in the Spool of the Sewing Machine, and in return you’ll get some unique new clothes.
At first, the Sewing Machine interface can look pretty daunting. However, there’s really only two things you need to know:
The resulting cosmetic item will be displayed in the box to the right of the Sewing Machine interface, and if you’re happy with the item you’re going to get, you just need to press the power button on the right of the interface to create it.
Items which can be made at the Sewing Machine
Rather than list off every single item that can be created at the Sewing Machine, I urge you to get creative and experiment to find out which items result in the coolest clothing items. It’s personal choice, and everyone has their own style preference after all.
With that said, I will list some of my personal favorite items and what you need in order to make it. You’ll need one fabric per item, as well as the item you place into the Spool:
How to dye items in Stardew Valley
Some cosmetic items are dyeable, but you need to make your own dye in order to change the color. To do this, you have two options.
The first method to dye items is by placing items which represent a color into the Dye Pots to right right of the Sewing Machine in Emily and Haley’s house. You must be wearing the item that you’re intending to dye.
Although there are only six different colors of dye (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple), there is a way to dye something outside of these colors. If you add one item which corresponds to each dye color, a HSL (hue, saturation, and lightness) slider will appear which allows you to choose your own color.
The second method is through the Sewing Machine itself. To dye an item through the Sewing Machine, you’ll need to place the item you want to dye into the slot where you’d usually put Fabric to craft an item. In the top slot, where you’d usually place the item in crafting, you’ll need to place an item corresponding to one of the dye colors.
Things can get a little tricky with either option, because one dyeing item will only dye a clothing item to 25%. To reach full saturation, you’ll need to use four items corresponding to the same color. Each item within your inventory which can be used as a dye item will have a colored circle on it, displaying the color of dye it will turn in to.
You can use pretty much any item to create dye, but here’s a list of 10 fairly easy items that you can gather which correspond to each color:
