The Sheet is an ordinary bed sheet. It is one of the most useful household materials in a long game.
Hung on a window, it works as a curtain that blocks the view from outside. Tied with Tie Sheet Rope, it becomes a Sheet Rope for climbing out of upper floors. Ripped, it gives a pile of Rag for bandages and crafting. Tailoring uses it in Sew Mattress and Sew Head Sack.
Sheets are common in laundries, closets and bedrooms. A Cotton Fabric Roll can also be cut into one with scissors. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
As a curtain, a sheet hangs on a window from the inventory. It stops zombies and survivors from seeing inside. A sheet on a window frame built by hand needs a ceiling or roof above it.
Tie Sheet Rope turns one sheet into one Sheet Rope with no tool. The rope is the escape line for upper floors and a binding for many log and stick builds.
Ripping a sheet with Rip Sheet gives ten Rag. Rags become bandages and go into many crafting recipes.
Sew Mattress takes five sheets, five pillows and five thread at Tailoring 2, with a sewing needle kept. Sew Head Sack makes a Cotton Headsack from one sheet at Tailoring 1. Make Sheet Sling Bag ties a sheet into a Sheet Sling Bag for early carrying. Build Pottery Bench uses one sheet with four Plank and four Nails at Carpentry 5.
The sheet also burns as fire tinder.
How to Get Sheet
Make Sheet cuts a Cotton Fabric Roll into a Sheet with scissors, which are kept. Untie Sheet Rope turns a Sheet Rope back into a sheet. Reclaim Sling Bag unties a Sheet Sling Bag to get the sheet back.
