Introduction to Padded Cloth {#introduction-to-padded-cloth}

Padded Cloth is a versatile processed material in RuneScape: Dragonwilds, released on April 15, 2025. It is described as a strong and lightweight crafting material, weighing 2.0 and having a stack limit of 50. This material serves a dual purpose: it can be used as a decorative item in Building projects, and it is also a fundamental component for crafting various other items, including Armours and Tools. Understanding how to acquire and utilize Padded Cloth is essential for progression in crafting and construction within the game.

Crafting Padded Cloth {#crafting-padded-cloth}

To produce Padded Cloth, players must engage in the Artisan skill. The crafting process takes place at a Loom, but it requires a specific upgrade to the facility: the Loom Harness. This upgrade must be built and placed in proximity to the Loom itself.

The recipe for Padded Cloth is straightforward, requiring two distinct types of cloth:

  • 1x Rough Cloth
  • 1x Wool Cloth

A player needs an Artisan skill level of 40 to craft Padded Cloth. Upon successful crafting, one unit of Padded Cloth is produced.

Obtaining the Loom Harness

The Loom Harness is a crucial prerequisite for crafting Padded Cloth. It is automatically unlocked the first time a player crafts an Iron Bar. Iron Bars are made from Iron Ore, which can be mined in the Stormtouched Highlands. Mining Iron Ore requires at least a Bronze Pickaxe.

To craft the Loom Harness itself, the following materials are needed:

  • 18x Ash Plank
  • 12x Oak Logs
  • 4x Iron Bar
  • 4x Ram Horn
  • 12x Wool Thread

Once crafted, placing the Loom Harness next to a Loom will upgrade it, expanding its capacity to two slots instead of the initial single slot. This upgraded Loom can then be used to combine Rough Cloth and Wool Cloth into Padded Cloth.

Sourcing Raw Materials for Padded Cloth

Before Padded Cloth can be made, its constituent materials—Rough Cloth and Wool Cloth—must be acquired. Both are crafted at a Loom.

Rough Cloth: Rough Cloth is crafted at a Loom using:

  • 3x Coarse Thread Coarse Thread is obtained by spinning either 1x Flax or 3x Coarse Animal Fur at a Spinning Wheel.

Wool Cloth: Wool Cloth is crafted at a Loom using:

  • 2x Wool Thread Wool Thread is obtained by spinning either 1x Fleece or 3x Soft Animal Fur at a Spinning Wheel.
