2424 Flax Fiber is the core textile material. 3 Flax Fiber crafts into 1 Linen Fabric at the Spinning Wheel (30 second craft). 4 Flax Seeds craft into 1 Flax Oil at the Press. Linen Fabric is used in approximately 44 recipes including armor, sails, and the 150-unit ship-construction budget.

2929 Flax is the single most-farmed crop in the game. Community-consensus guidance is to dedicate 15 to 20 Seedbed slots to Flax as soon as Fertile Soil is unlocked, since Linen Fabric demand scales sharply once armor crafting and ship construction begin.

3333 Prioritize Flax over every other crop early; it feeds the textile chain that Linen Fabric recipes draw from.Spin surplus Flax Fiber into Linen Fabric in batches at the Spinning Wheel so you always have fabric ready for armor and sails.Convert spare seeds into Flax Oil at the Press rather than letting them stack uselessly.For hands-off bulk supply, route Flax through the Farming Contractor in Tortuga.
