| Price | 1000g |
The Butterfly Bow is usually the first hat a new farm can afford. It goes on the mouse's shelf for 1,000g once a farmer reaches five hearts of friendship with any single villager, which is the easiest achievement in the game to stumble into. Two gifts a week and a few conversations will do it by the end of the first summer. That makes the bow less a trophy than an introduction: it is the item that teaches a farmer that befriending the town pays in more than recipes. Soft, oversized and shaped like a butterfly, it is also one of the prettiest things in the mouse's stock.
Location
Friendship climbs on gifts, conversation and birthdays. Two gifts a week per villager is the limit, a loved gift counts for far more than a liked one, and a gift handed over on a birthday counts several times again. Talking every day adds a little on its own, and skipping a villager for a long stretch lets the hearts slip back. Five hearts with one person is all the achievement asks, so the obvious plan is to pick the villager whose loved gifts the farm already produces.
The hat is sold by the mouse that has taken over the Abandoned House, the ruin down in the south of Cindersap Forest beyond Marnie's. The shop does not exist until a first achievement is earned, and then a letter arrives the next morning to introduce it. Each achievement after that generally puts one more hat on the shelves, so an early visit shows a nearly bare wall that fills out over the years.
Effect
The bow fastens at the back of the head with its loops spread like wings, large enough to read clearly at a glance. It leaves the face and most of the hair visible and sits comfortably with bright clothes. On a farmer in their first year it does a lot of work, because most of the early wardrobe is plain and this is the one piece that is not. The hat slot holds it as usual, and it can be moved onto a toddler once the family grows.
Notes
Friendship is the richest of the achievement ladders for a hat collector. Five hearts with one villager gives this bow, ten hearts with one gives the Mouse Ears, five hearts with a handful gives the Tiara, five with ten gives the Santa Hat, five with twenty gives the Earmuffs, and ten hearts with eight people gives the Cat Ears.
Maximum friendship with every villager is also a large slice of the Perfection total, so the work behind this bow is the start of a much longer job.
