The Red Linen Bag recipe in WoW Forever is an early Tailoring pattern that lets you craft an 8-slot bag for additional inventory space. Unlike recipes learned directly from a profession trainer, this pattern must be purchased from a vendor before you can use it. Several vendors across both Horde and Alliance territories carry the recipe, making it accessible without traveling to the opposite faction's cities.

Where to Get the Red Linen Bag Recipe in WoW Forever
You can purchase Pattern: Red Linen Bag from vendors in Thunder Bluff, Darkshore, Westfall, and Silverpine Forest. The pattern costs 2 silver and 10 copper and requires Tailoring skill 50 to learn.
The available vendor zones are divided conveniently between Alliance and Horde territories:
| Faction | Vendor Location |
|---|---|
| Alliance | Darkshore |
| Alliance | Westfall |
| Horde | Thunder Bluff |
| Horde | Silverpine Forest |
For Alliance players, Westfall is a practical option if you're already leveling near Stormwind, while Darkshore makes more sense for characters progressing through the Night Elf questing areas.
Horde players can look for the pattern in Thunder Bluff or Silverpine Forest, depending on which region they're currently exploring.
The item database confirms these zones as vendor locations, although it doesn't identify the individual NPC names or exact coordinates. You don't need to rely on an enemy drop to acquire the recipe.
How to Craft the Red Linen Bag
After purchasing the pattern and learning it, you can craft a Red Linen Bag using three types of materials.
| Required Material | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Bolt of Linen Cloth | 4 |
| Fine Thread | 1 |
| Red Dye | 1 |
To make the bag:
- Reach at least 50 skill in Tailoring.
- Purchase Pattern: Red Linen Bag from one of its listed vendors.
- Use the pattern to learn the recipe.
- Gather four Bolts of Linen Cloth, one Fine Thread, and one Red Dye.
- Open your Tailoring profession menu and craft the Red Linen Bag.
Each completed Red Linen Bag provides eight inventory slots. If you're making multiple bags, remember that every additional craft requires another complete set of materials, but you only need to learn the pattern once.
Red Linen Bag Tailoring Skill Requirements
The Red Linen Bag recipe requires Tailoring 50, making it available relatively early in profession progression.
Its crafting difficulty changes as your Tailoring skill increases. The listed skill breakpoints are:
- 50: Recipe becomes available to craft.
- 75: Recipe reaches its yellow difficulty threshold.
- 92: Recipe reaches its green difficulty threshold.
- 110: Recipe becomes gray.
This matters if you're planning to craft several bags while leveling Tailoring. At lower skill levels, making Red Linen Bags can contribute to your profession progression, but the opportunity to gain skill decreases as the recipe becomes easier.
I would consider crafting the bags while the recipe can still provide useful skill progression, particularly if you also need the inventory space.
Red Linen Bag Recipe Questions
Is the Red Linen Bag an 8-Slot Bag?
Yes. The finished Red Linen Bag is an 8-slot container with item level 5. It's separate from Pattern: Red Linen Bag, which is the item used to learn how to craft it.
Why Can't You Learn the Red Linen Bag Recipe?
The pattern requires Tailoring 50. If your skill is below that requirement, you'll need to continue leveling the profession before learning the recipe.
Also, make sure you've purchased the pattern itself rather than the finished bag. Buying an already-crafted Red Linen Bag doesn't teach you how to make additional copies.
Does the Pattern Require Character Level 14?
No character level 14 requirement is established by the provided item information. The pattern has item level 14, but its stated learning requirement is Tailoring 50.
Can Both Alliance and Horde Get the Recipe?
Yes. Alliance players can find vendors in Darkshore and Westfall, while Horde players have options in Thunder Bluff and Silverpine Forest.
The Red Linen Bag is a useful early Tailoring craft in WoW Forever, particularly when you're expanding your inventory while leveling the profession. Once you've reached Tailoring 50, purchase the pattern from a convenient faction-side vendor and collect the required linen bolts, thread, and dye to start making your own 8-slot bags.
