General

Usage

Tailoring

Thread is needed to repair and fortify clothes with the tailoring skill. Each application of a padding or patch uses 1 unit of thread.

Crafting

Thread is required in crafting a mattress.

Medical

Thread can be used with a needle to stitch deep wounds, however causing more pain than using a suture needle.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
