✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 172 endorsements and over 7,500 downloads.
- Adds a logical crafting station (looms) in major hubs, making clothing crafting feel more immersive.
- Patches for 12 popular clothing mods mean your existing gear can be crafted too, not just vanilla items.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires patches for other mods to work fully; without them, only base game clothing is covered.
- SkyPatcher version may conflict with other mods using SkyPatcher, so choose carefully.
- Looms are only in specific locations—if you play in a modded worldspace, you might miss them.
For Skyrim players who enjoy crafting and want a more immersive way to make clothing, especially those using clothing mods that lack crafting recipes. It's also great for roleplayers who like to visit towns and use local facilities. Skip if you're not into crafting or prefer to keep your mod list minimal.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Choose the SkyPatcher version if you already use SkyPatcher for other mods, but be aware of potential conflicts; otherwise, stick with the traditional ESP.
- If you use clothing mods like Common Clothing Expansion, make sure to install its Crafting Recipes Plugin as noted in the description.
- Looms are placed in major cities and towns—check Whiterun for two, and look for them near crafting areas or general stores.
