Also I found you can shear any stitching in the crafting menu and it will turn into normal stitching.

I have undertaken the task of making a sailboat and the time to get all the linen is now. I recently found a commodities trader who sells linen squares but they are in diamond weave pattern not the normal stitches that I have made already. I know all the wood type for the boat must be the same. Are they interchangeable for the boat recipe or have I just wasted my gears?
