V Rising is a vampire survival game cut from the same cloth as other Early Access classics on Steam. While the opening of the game teaches you a handful of key things, there's a lot more to crafting than meets the eye, particularly when it comes to finding cotton and spinning cloth and yarn.
One of the most important resources in the game (if not the most important) is cotton. It might not seem very exciting at first, but when it comes to crafting late-game materials, cotton is imperative.
In the following guide, we explain how to get cotton, the cotton yarn recipe, and how to turn it into cloth in V Rising.

When spot a Cotton Farm on the map, look for a crop field filled with white, fluffy plants. Whack them with your weapon and scoop up the precious loot.
While you harvest cotton, you're also in with the chance of picking up some cotton seeds so that you can grow your own crop. Don't forget to check the containers at cotton farms too, as there is every chance that some cotton or cotton seeds may be in here too.
When it comes to collecting resources, gathering as much fabric-making material as possible is incredibly important in V Rising. As a constituent element of better gear, cotton is vital for crafting cotton yarn, which later can be combined with ghost shrooms to make ghost yarn. These are some of the best materials for late-game gear!
