String

String is pliable but strong substance that is used to make a wide variety of items, including Stone tools, Fishing Rods, Bows, and Bow Drills. String can be harvested from Cobwebs or directly as a drop from spiders if they have not recently shot a cobweb. Breaking a cobweb with any Chisel-type tool will yield one string after four stages of wear, but a more efficient method is to break it with Shears and craft the Cobweb into two String. Because of its wide variety of uses, it is a valuable resource in the early game.
