Weavenest Atla is an area whose entrance players will have definitely seen in the first hour of Hollow Knight: Silksong, but would have no idea how to open it. Despite the door being available to look at from the start of the game, it's not until the end of the first Act that players will acquire an ability and be able to open the door that leads to Weavenest Atla.

This is one of the smaller areas in the game, but it has a very important NPC that can change the player's gameplay and playstyle. Here's how to find the ability locking players out of the area and the location of the map in Hollow Knight: Silksong.

How to Get to Weavenest Atla in Silksong

To reach the Weavenest Atla, you will need to progress through the main story until you reach Bellhart, and a new objective appears: The Threadspun Town. For this objective, you will have to go into Shellwood, acquire the wall jump ability, and then head right to defeat the Widow. Doing this will get you the Needolin Skill, which is necessary for Weavenest Atla.

Go to the Bellway Station and fast travel to Bone Bottom. Head left and down into Moss Grotto, but make your way right to find a large weaver-shaped door that you can open now. Stand next to the door and press Triangle/Y on your controller or D if you are playing on the Keyboard. Head through the door to reach Weavenest Atla.

Weavenest Atla Map Location in Silksong

The map for Weavenest Atla is not far away from the starting location. After opening the door, keep going straight and head right to find two glowing cylinders that you can hit. This will make the mechanism in the room behind start working, which jets you down to the bottom of the area. However, before going there, you can interact with the rune tablet to find the map. There are quite a few things in this area that you can get, such as a Spool Fragment, Mask Shard, a boss in one corner of the area, and an NPC that upgrades your Hunter’s Crest.

The Needolin Skill can be used in front of any NPC to make them sing and opens a few doors located throughout the game. Most of these doors lead to different locations or valuable tools.
