Stardew Valley is the ever-expanding farming game gift that just keeps on giving, with solo developer Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone releasing free content-packed updates years following the indie gem’s initial release date. The recent Stardew Valley 1.6 update is one of the game’s most notable yet, featuring exciting additions such as various new crafting recipes. If you’re a completionist and already have that impressive Craft Master achievement under your belt, you’re likely looking forward to conjuring up the product of each new 1.6 recipe.
You start with access to just ten recipes when you first play Stardew Valley despite there being over a hundred total, leaving you to learn the rest by developing relationships with the townsfolk, leveling up to gain skills, or simply purchasing them from shops. The crafting menu itself is thankfully easy to navigate, integrated into the game’s pause menu under the icon that looks like a hammer. To find out a recipe’s required ingredients, all you need to do is mouse over the item you’re interested in crafting. Once you have the materials you need handy, you only have to click once to craft.
Some Stardew Valley recipes may require a more complicated set of materials to craft than others do, but anything you need is available somewhere within the confines of the town or its neighboring regions. The same applies to the new 1.6 crafting recipes, of which there are quite a few. Whether you’re a hardened farmer-turned-crafter hoping to once more master every in-game recipe or are more of a casual crafter just looking to learn what items are now available to make, here are all of the new Stardew Valley 1.6 crafting recipes.
Stardew Valley 1.6 Crafting Recipes
Here are all of the new Stardew Valley update 1.6 crafting recipes, from the Anvil to the Text Sign. You’ll find each item listed in alphabetical order, as well as its required materials and what you’ll have to do to unlock its corresponding recipe. Some of the recipes require a certain skill level, whether that be fishing or otherwise, while others simply require you to purchase them directly from one of the townsfolk’s shops.
