Thresh it in the Barn
2 Flax gives 1 Flax Seed and 2 Flax Stalk.
Spin it in the Sewing Hut
5 Flax Stalk gives 1 Linen Thread.
Or buy the thread
Seamster and Stallholder Resources.
Step 1: Sow Flax in spring
The seed file lists Flax as sowable in spring and in no other season (summer, autumn and winter are all off). Each season lasts 3 days by default, so the window is short. The farming page has the crop's stages. The tutorial's field recipe is: grub up the field with a Hoe (once), sprinkle Fertiliser from a Bag, plough with the Hoe, sow, harvest. See how to make fertilizer.
Step 2: Thresh Flax into Flax Stalk
Flax Stalk: "Crafted from Flax on the Threshing Floor in the Barn. Can be used for creating Linen Thread on the Spinning Wheel in the Sewing Hut." The Threshing Floor recipe is 2 Flax for 1 Flax Seed and 2 Flax Stalk, 1 second, 0.4 Farming experience. That is 1 stalk per Flax. The Barn costs 64 Stick, 27 Log, 12 Stone, 48 Straw and needs Farming technology level 10.
Step 3: Spin the thread
The Sewing Hut I costs 24 Stick, 17 Log, 8 Stone, 40 Straw and has "the Spinning Wheel, the Loom and the Tailoring Table inside". The Linen Thread recipe is 5 Flax Stalk for 1 thread in 5 seconds, 2.6 Crafting experience, Crafting technology level 100, cost 50. A Seamster working there produces 0.402 an hour in the files.
Step 4: Or just buy it
Linen Thread has a base price of 40 coins and is listed with Seamster and Stallholder Resources vendors. Flax Stalk is a base 5 coins each, so five stalks are 25. If you only need a thread or two for a Fishing Spear, buying costs coins but saves you the wait for the next spring.

Common mistakes
- Missing the spring window. Flax is sown in spring only, and a season is 3 days.
- Building the Sewing Hut before the technology. It needs Crafting technology level 100.
- Counting seeds as stalks. 2 Flax give 1 Flax Seed and 2 Flax Stalk; only the stalks make thread. (Flax itself has a base price of 7.)
