Mastering the use of basic karakuri is one of the most important skills to get a handle on in Wild Hearts. Because it’s so versatile in both combat and exploration, players will want to be able to make as much basic karakuri as possible. Unfortunately, you’ll only be able to hold 12 karakuri threads, the crafting resources you need to build basic karakuri, when you start the game.

While sitting by it, choose the option to “enhance Tsukomo.” Here, you’ll be able to increase your companion Tsukomo’s attack, defense, assist, and threader forms (more details about what those do in our Tsukomo guide linked here.) As you upgrade your Tsukomo, you will periodically get a notification saying that your thread capacity will be upgraded upon
