Obtaining

The Bone Needle can be made by holding one or more bones and attempting to break a Stone Block. This will shatter the Bone, returning Bone Fragments, and occasionally the Bone Needle.

The Iron Needle is made from Wrought Iron at an Anvil.

Usage

Needles are primarily used in sewing. Before they can be used to sew, they must be threaded with any type of string, including sinew. In the Sewing interface, the player must use the needles' tips to sew the lines required by left-click dragging on the pattern. Once a line is sewn, it can be removed by right-click dragging with any type of Knife.

The Bone Needle has a 12.5% chance to break when it runs out of thread, but the Iron Needle does not. The Iron Needle also has more durability before it runs out of string.

Bug: currently (v0.83.6) if you run out of thread on an Iron Needle and have no more string/sinew in the crafting grid to refill it, your Iron Needle breaks/bugs-out instead of becoming an un-threaded Iron Needle. So always have extra string/sinew in the sewing UI grid when sewing!Verify
