How to Get Wool Thread in LEGO Fortnite

Spin some wool for better gear.

Wool Thread is one of the important resources in LEGO Fortnite which is used to make other resources but cannot be easily found in the wild. Players will have to make it themselves, but it requires gathering some wool and a special machine to spin it into thread.

How to Make Wool Thread in LEGO Fortnite

Wool Thread can be created by using the Wool Thread recipe at the Spinning Wheel machine. The Spinning Wheel piece will be unlocked in Survival mode after players have gathered wool, or they have built the Crafting Bench and Lumber Mill machines.

The Spinning Wheel can be crafted with eight Planks, five Wooden Rods, five Wood, and five Wolf Claws. This machine has a few recipes that it can create, including the Wool Thread recipe.

Wool Thread can be created at the Spinning Wheel by depositing one wool into the machine. One wool can create one Wool Thread, and multiple can be deposited at one time. Simply wait for the machine to finish and then take the thread at the Spinning Wheel.

How to Get Wool in LEGO Fortnite

Players can get wool in LEGO Fortnite by simply petting sheep in the wild. Sheep can be found around the environment, and players can easily find them in packs in the grasslands.

Petting can be done by walking up to the animal and using the Interact button when the prompt shows. Sheep may run away at first, but they will come back if pressed at the right time.

Players can also get wool by making villagers forage for resources. However, what they collect can be random, so it is not a surefire method to get just wool.
