A sewing kit is a small sewing container.

Usage

A sewing kit has a weight limit of 5 and can spawn containing either one, or multiple of either needle(s), thread(s) or both. Although the name and spawnable items would suggest it can only hold these items, it can actually hold any type of item, just like other bags. To see and use the contents of a sewing kit, it must first be equipped or placed on the floor, just like other equippable containers.

These items can be used in tailoring to fortify clothing with denim or leather strips that can be acquired using scissors. They can also be used to suture deep wounds. However, it causes more pain than if a Suture Needle is used.

Sewing kits can spawn with:

	Needle
	Thread

Distribution

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

SewingKit distribution Show / Hide

Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings, and median 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.
