Wool makes string
Wool makes string is a Fabric economy mod that lets players craft wool and carpets into string.
What it does
Players can craft wool carpet into string, which gives a new route to a material that is otherwise gathered from spiders and cobwebs. The mod also changes which sheep-related trades a fletcher offers. A datapack option is included for servers that want sheep to supply a steady string source. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on Fabric 26.3 and older builds. The server requires the mod, while clients may leave it out. Builds cover 1.21.1 – 26.3 on Fabric, and the code is not open source, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Carpet to string recipe
Wool carpet can be crafted into string, giving players a second source for this common material.
Fletcher trade change
The trades offered by fletchers are adjusted so that string is available through villager trading.
Datapack sheep supply
A datapack included with the mod lets a few sheep provide an effectively unlimited string supply.

What the author says
Ever needed string? Probably not, but if you trade with fletchers, you do. With the removal of string dupers, that is much harder to get. With this mod (or datapack), all you need is a few sheep, and you have infinite string. With this pack/mod, you can also turn carpet into string and string into carpet.
