Gathering Materials for Villager Hats

Plan Around the Profession

Every hat in the mod maps to a villager profession: Armorer, Butcher, Farmer, Fisherman, Fletcher, Librarian, and Shepherd. The materials each hat consumes follow that theme, so the fastest way to stock up is to gather the resources you already associate with that villager's trade.

Practical Stockpiling

For the Armorer Hat, collect the metal and protective materials an armorer works with.
For the Butcher Hat, gather the animal-derived items a butcher handles.
For the Farmer Hat, bring in crops and farming supplies.
For the Fisherman Hat, stock fishing-related items.
For the Fletcher Hat, collect the wood and feather-type materials a fletcher uses.
For the Librarian Hat, gather paper and book-type materials.
For the Shepherd Hat, collect wool and shepherding supplies.

Because four of the seven hats are shaped recipes, keep your materials organized in stacks so you can place exact counts into exact slots without hunting through a messy inventory. The three shapeless hats — Fletcher, Librarian, and Shepherd — are more forgiving: as long as the item counts are right, you can drop them in any arrangement.

Run a single gathering trip per profession theme, then craft all the hats you can in one sitting at a crafting table.
