balance required items to make bows

1 bow takes 2 pieces of fabric.. each piece of fabric takes 10 cotton thread.. and each cotton thread takes 5 cotton..

100 pieces of cotton for a bow? ouch.

I have been hoarding cotton for months (since probably July) and only have 700 pieces of cotton - not even enough to make 1 of each bow..

a whole scarf only takes 25 cotton, why does an itty bitty bow take 100?? 10 seems much more fair

EDIT: to clarify, staff, this does not mean you should raise the cotton cost of scarves! the comparison was solely used to show how poorly balanced the items needed for the bows are :)

Support.

It's a wild amount of cotton for such a small apparel item, made even worse by the fact that we can't get cotton anywhere but the shops.

Pff yeah that feels like overkill. Either reduce the requirements and/or increase the output of the earlier in-between-materials. (So instead of a recipe giving just 1 cotton thread, make it give 2 or 3).

And please, make cotton a growable plant!

Support! I was shocked at the amount that was needed, as well.

Also, massive support to Gaia's suggestion of being able to grow cotton!

I never thought about it before, but being able to grow the cotton would be huge! Support!

Definite support. If cotton was significantly more frequent, it would be a bit more justifiable, but access to cotton is pretty much luck of the mole market, the flea market, or one crafting encounter in Darkspine that's level-restricted (iirc).

Also support for farmable cotton. I love farming.

i agree, the amount of cotton it takes for one bow is unreasonable for somebody who plays constantly, let alone someone playing casually.

support, and honestly even the scarves are too much with cotton only rarely appearing in mole market (at least you can still buy yarn and fabric, so it's probably kinda fine)

if cotton was farmable, farming would get its first real use :)

100 cotton for a bow is ridiculous, support! I have 900-ish cotton.. I buy it every time it lands in my MM but as others have said that's the only way to get it (I think crafting encounter too but I don't campaign on that map so?).

Growing cotton would be neat!

I also like the idea of growing cotton. It might be better to have cotton thread take 1 or 2 cotton to make each spool, perhaps? And then maybe 5 threads to make a fabric? That would be so much more reasonable in regards to counts. Granted that thread is thinner than yarn, but still... shouldn't it be acheivable?
