Flax is a Plains-era crop harvested by picking cultivated flax plants. It is spun at the Spinning wheel into Linen thread, the key material for the Padded armor set, Linen cape, and Porcupine.

Overview

Flax is a material item in Valheim. Its in-game item ID is Flax, which you can drop into the console with spawn Flax to give yourself one — append a number like spawn Flax 50 to spawn a stack.

In the in-game data it is tagged as Item drop, Material, and Seed.

The spawn command requires cheats — enable them with devcommands after opening the console.
