Enshrouded Wool comes out of the Spinning Machine: 16 Raw Wool turn into 12 Wool. The Raw Wool itself only comes from the Yak in the Albaneve Summits, which you can either hunt or tame and keep on your base with the Farmer.
According to the game data, the material goes into 18 recipes and into Flame Level 7. The biggest consumer sits one step further down, though: Warm Padding is part of 51 more items, including pieces from nine armor sets. Below you'll find every recipe and our math on how many Yaks you actually need.

Names, levels, drops and recipes come from the game data database enshrouded.th.gl, which reads its values from the game files. Amounts and animal husbandry details come from the English community wiki enshrouded.wiki.gg. Keen Games' official changelogs for 1.0, Patch #1 and Hotfix #4 don't change any of these recipes. Patch #1 only touches the animal beds.
๐๏ธ Where Enshrouded Wool comes from: the Yak in the Albaneve Summits
There is exactly one source of the raw material: the Yak. The database describes it as a woolly fellow that grows a thick coat to weather the harsh climate of the Albaneve Summits, and notes that it can be shaved for wool. It lists 126 known locations. Our Enshrouded map guide shows where the region sits.
You have two options. If you kill a Yak, enshrouded.th.gl lists a drop of 1 to 2 Raw Wool at a 100 percent chance. The community wiki (last checked February 2026, so before 1.0) says 0 to 2, plus 1 to 2 Bones and 2 to 3 Raw Fatty Meat. The two sources disagree on the minimum.
For a steady supply of Enshrouded Wool, the second option pays off more: tame the Yak and keep it on your farm. According to the community wiki, a fed and sheltered Yak produces 1 Raw Wool roughly every ten minutes and stops once it has eight stored. Without food it produces much more slowly.
๐ฝ How to tame a Yak: quest, bait and Yak Feeder
Taming, and with it a steady Enshrouded Wool supply, unlocks through the Farmer's quest "Gathering Wool In The Albaneve Summits". The quest log recommends level 25. You craft at least 3 Yak Food Bait and then tame a Yak. The quest marks the animals at the Quiet Caves, but any Yak counts. If you still need to rescue the Farmer, check our guide to all Enshrouded craftspeople.
Here's how taming works according to the database: sneak up carefully, throw the bait near the animal and pet the Yak while it eats. The community wiki says it takes three successful pet interactions. After that you can take it back to your farm.
| Item | Station | Ingredients | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yak Food Bait | Farmer | 1 Yucca Fruit, 1 Corncob | 10 bait |
| Yak Food | Farmer | 1 Yucca Fruit, 3 Corncob, 1 Dried Purple Berry | 50 food |
| Yak Feeder | Farmer | 7 Wood Logs, 3 Nails | 1 feeder |
The database isn't fully consistent on the bait. The ingredient list at the top of its page also mentions Flat Bread, Dried Purple Berry and Honey, while the Farmer's crafting step only uses Yucca Fruit and Corncob. Double-check this in game. You can grow corn and yucca yourself, and our Enshrouded farming guide explains how.
๐๏ธ Shelter and animal bed
According to the community wiki, a Yak on your farm needs shelter, a filled Yak Feeder and a Big Farm Animal Pillow. For offspring, place a second bed. Patch #1 (1.0.1.0) from November 2, 2026 made the recipe easier: big farm animal beds can now be crafted from any wood type. The changelog also says fish no longer secretly occupy the beds that new offspring need.
๐งถ Processing at the Spinning Machine
You build the Spinning Machine at the Hunter. According to the community wiki, its recipe unlocks as soon as you pick up your first Raw Wool during the Yak quest. The wiki lists Conifer Logs, Metal Scraps, Linen and a Spinning Wheel as ingredients. That page was last edited in August 2025, and we couldn't find the amounts in the 1.0 game data.
The recipe itself is the same in both sources: 16 Raw Wool become 12 Wool, which takes three minutes according to the wiki. That works out to 1.33 Raw Wool per piece of Enshrouded Wool. Raw Wool has five other uses:
- Spider Web I to III at the Hunter: 1 Raw Wool each
- Spider Web IV at the Hunter: 2 Raw Wool
- Eternal Fire Totem I at the Alchemist: 10 Raw Wool plus 15 Obsidian, 15 Coal and 20 Amethyst
๐ฅ Flame Level 7: 30 Enshrouded Wool for the altar
The first big mandatory cost is the Flame. According to enshrouded.th.gl, Flame Level 7 needs 30 Spark, 1 Fell Cyclops Head and 30 each of Gentian, Ice, Granite, Flammable Goo and Wool. The level gives you 11 minutes in the Shroud and Shroud Passage Level 7. Every other level is covered in our Enshrouded Flame Altar levels guide.
๐ก๏ธ Warm Padding: the hidden Enshrouded Wool sink
Warm Padding is crafted at the Hunter from 3 Fabric, 1 Leather, 2 Resin and 4 Wool. According to the database, it protects against the cold when used in armor. Don't mix it up with the regular level 25 Padding, which uses 2 Linen instead.
enshrouded.th.gl lists 51 items that contain Warm Padding: 45 armor pieces from nine sets and six pieces of furniture. Among the sets are Wolf's Fang, Brazen Bull and Frostbite Slasher. We checked two sets piece by piece:
| Piece | Wolf's Fang (Blacksmith) | Ranged set from the Hunter |
|---|---|---|
| Chest | 2 Warm Padding | 2 Warm Padding |
| Head | 1 | 1 |
| Trousers | 1 | 1 |
| Gloves | 1 | 1 |
| Boots | 1 | 1 |
| Total | 6 Warm Padding = 24 Wool | 6 Warm Padding = 24 Wool |
According to the database, the trousers of the Hunter set unlock with Flame Level 6, so you need your Yaks before Level 7. For the Iron Bars and Steel Bars in these sets, see our Enshrouded iron ore guide. Which class fits which set is covered in our Enshrouded builds guide.
๐ช All 18 Enshrouded Wool recipes
The list comes from enshrouded.th.gl, the amounts from the community wiki. For Warm Padding, Big Elegant Sofa, High Elegant Armchair, Red, Yellow and Blue Wall Banner I and Wall Tapestry IV, we also checked the amounts on the database's recipe pages.
| Item | Craftsperson | Wool | Other ingredients |
|---|---|---|---|
| Warm Padding | Hunter | 4 | 3 Fabric, 1 Leather, 2 Resin |
| Big Elegant Sofa | Carpenter | 12 | 8 Conifer Logs, 4 Nails, 4 Warm Padding, 4 Hardened Leather |
| Small Elegant Sofa | Carpenter | 10 | 6 Conifer Logs, 3 Nails, 3 Warm Padding, 3 Hardened Leather |
| High Elegant Armchair | Carpenter | 6 | 2 Conifer Logs, 1 Nail, 2 Warm Padding, 3 Hardened Leather |
| Low Elegant Armchair | Carpenter | 4 | 2 Conifer Logs, 1 Nail, 2 Warm Padding, 2 Hardened Leather |
| Wall Tapestry I, II, III | Bard | 10 each | 1 each of Saffron, Sulfur, Indigo Plant, Mauveine, Mint Mushroom Meat, Conifer Logs |
| Wall Tapestry IV, V | Bard | 18 each | 2 each of Saffron, Sulfur, Indigo Plant, Mauveine, Mint Mushroom Meat, Conifer Logs |
| Big Blue Wall Banner I, II | Bard | 3 each | 3 Blue Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
| Big Red Wall Banner | Bard | 3 | 3 Red Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
| Big Yellow Wall Banner | Bard | 3 | 3 Yellow Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
| Blue Wall Banner I, II | Bard | 2 each | 2 Blue Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
| Red Wall Banner | Bard | 2 | 2 Red Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
| Yellow Wall Banner | Bard | 2 | 2 Yellow Fabric, 1 Steel Bar |
According to the database, the sofas and armchairs give +8 Comfort each and Wall Tapestry IV gives +5. The elegant furniture costs you twice, because it also contains Warm Padding. The tapestries need Saffron from the Kindlewastes, which our Enshrouded saffron guide covers in detail.
๐งฎ Our math: how much Raw Wool you need
The Spinning Machine only spins Enshrouded Wool in batches of 12, which leaves leftovers. We ran the numbers in Python. Kills assume the database average of 1.5 Raw Wool per Yak, and hours assume one farm Yak producing 1 Raw Wool every ten minutes, as the wiki states.
| Goal | Wool needed | Batches | Raw Wool | Leftover | Yak kills | 1 farm Yak |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flame Level 7 | 30 | 3 | 48 | 6 | 32 | 8 h |
| One set (Wolf's Fang or the Hunter set) | 24 | 2 | 32 | 0 | 22 | 5 h 20 min |
| Flame Level 7 plus one set | 54 | 5 | 80 | 6 | 54 | 13 h 20 min |
| Big Elegant Sofa including its padding | 28 | 3 | 48 | 8 | 32 | 8 h |
| All 5 Wall Tapestries | 66 | 6 | 96 | 6 | 64 | 16 h |
| All 18 recipes once (direct Wool only) | 122 | 11 | 176 | 10 | 118 | 29 h 20 min |
For Enshrouded Wool, the numbers make a clear case for the farm. Flame Level 7 plus one armor set already costs 80 Raw Wool, which means more than 50 dead Yaks or about 13 hours with a single animal. Four farm Yaks produce the same amount in roughly 3 hours 20 minutes, as long as you empty their eight-piece storage regularly. If you go with the wiki's 0 to 2 drop range, the number of kills goes up by half.
๐ก Enshrouded Wool farming tips
- Plant corn early: both bait and food need Corncob and Yucca Fruit.
- Plan your batches: for the 30 Wool at the Flame you run three batches, and the 6 left over are enough for one Warm Padding.
- Don't waste Raw Wool: Spider Webs and the totem eat raw material you'll miss later.
- Empty the storage: according to the wiki, a Yak stops producing once it has eight Raw Wool stored.
