The Sewing Kit is a small box of sewing supplies. It is a container made to hold needles, thread and other small notions. A kit found in the world usually holds something useful for Tailoring.
Its main value is what comes inside it. A Needle and Thread are the two things most often found in one. As a container it is tiny, with room for only very small items. It is found in closets, bathrooms, laundries, bedrooms and tailoring stores. The Tailor is the best occupation for bags and containers. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Carrying
The Sewing Kit holds 2 and carries the load at half weight. It only takes very small items, up to a size of 0.3. Needles, thread and buttons are the kind of thing it is made for.
To see and use what is inside, the kit must be held in the hands or set on the floor. That makes it a storage box more than a travel bag.
A kit found in the world often comes with supplies. A Needle shows up in more than a third of kits. Thread shows up in about a third. Buttons, a Thimble, Buckles, a Measuring Tape, Scissors and an Awl turn up less often.
Locations

Notes

- Those two items let a character patch holes in clothes with Tailoring.
- The kit itself is best emptied and left at a base once its supplies are out.
