Origin[]

John Kay invented the flying shuttle, which helped weavers weave wider fabrics and produce more product compared to just a hand loom. Kay’s creation helped mechanize the textile industry and push it forwards in efficiency during the Industrial Revolution.

Effects[]

The user can create articles of fashion that wearers consider both amazingly beautiful and amazingly bizarre in design. At least until they feel their intestines start to twist together in a knot.
