Your Tool Pouch and Crafting Kit in *Hollow Knight: Silksong* play a crucial role in determining how many tools you can carry and the amount of damage they deal. While it’s possible to progress quite far without upgrading these items, investing in their improvements will make confronting tougher bosses and navigating challenging sections much easier.

### How to Upgrade the Tool Pouch & Crafting Kit
Although the Tool Pouch and Crafting Kit appear as a single item in your inventory, they are upgraded separately in *Silksong*. Their upgrades are scattered throughout the world—some can be purchased, others are earned by completing tasks, and a few require skillful feats. Notably, you can obtain two upgrades for each before finishing Act 1.

### How to Upgrade the Crafting Kit
Similarly, the Crafting Kit can be upgraded four times. Most of these upgrades are purchased from various vendors:
– Purchase an upgrade from the **Forge Daughter** in Deep Docks.
– Complete the **Crawbug Clearing Wish** from Bellhart for Creige in the Halfway Home at Greymoor.
– Purchase an upgrade from the **Twelfth Architect** in The Cauldron.
