Tailor

Town shop, built on a house plot

The Tailor is a town shop for flax and cloth. It goes on a house plot and is one of the cheapest shops: 4 Building Kit I, 3 Wooden Kit I and 1 Iron Kit I.

It sells Flax Seed, Flax and Lace, then Flax Thread from tier II and Fabric from tier III. It is also where you buy bags: the Universal bag for 10 silver, and from tier II the Big universal bag for 50 silver.

Its happiness list is short. At tier I it takes only Flax, 80 a week at 0.1 each, which alone fills the whole weekly cap of 8. At tier II it switches to Flax Thread (160 a week, again the whole cap), and at tier III Thread and Fabric together make up the 25.

Notes

  • Each upgrade needs the product the next tier sells. Tier II asks for 40 Flax Thread, which the Tailor only sells from tier II; tier III asks for 60 Fabric, sold only from tier III. Spin the thread on a Spinning Wheel and weave the fabric on a Weaving Loom.
  • The tier I order can be filled by hand. Supply: Fabric is packed at a Woodworking Workbench as well as in the Factory, and Supply: Clothes I for tier II at a Sewing Table.
  • Flax stops counting for happiness at tier II. If you have a field of flax, sell it before upgrading.
