In brief

Windrose lets you increase your inventory size through specialized bags that can be crafted. Find out how to create the Torn Cloth Bag (+4 slots) and the Sailor's Backpack (+8 slots) by gathering the materials needed at a workbench.

In Windrose, managing your inventory is essential to make the most of exploration and gathering. This article will explain how to increase your inventory size.

Inventory bags: an effective way

To increase your storage capacity, Windrose offers several inventory bags. The first one to consider is the Torn Canvas Bag. This one allows you to increase your inventory by four additional slots. To craft this item, you need a workbench. You'll need to gather:

A rope: to get a rope, combine five plant fibers.
Two coarse fabrics: each fabric requires 20 plant fibers.

Once you have gathered these materials, select the Torn Canvas Bag blueprint at your workbench and craft it. Don't forget to then equip it in your accessory section to benefit from the increased slots.

The Sailor's Backpack

If you want to increase your storage space even further, you can get the Sailor's Backpack, which gives you eight additional slots. You must first have the Torn Canvas Bag.

Required materials:

A Torn Canvas Bag
Five rough hides: To get the hides you're missing, go hunt some boars.
Two copper ingots: these ingots are generally very easy to find early in the game.

Once you've gathered the materials, simply craft the Sailor's Backpack and equip it to benefit from the increased inventory space.
