Tailoring
Periwinkle can be used in the spool of the Sewing Machine to create the Rain Coat. 
Fish Pond
Periwinkles can be placed in a Fish Pond, where they will reproduce every day. The initial pond capacity is 3 fish, but the capacity can be increased to 10 by completing three quests. Typical output includes light blue Periwinkle Roe (40g), Green Algae, and various Trash items, but more valuable items are possible starting at population 5.

Quests
One Periwinkle may be requested by several fish in Fish Pond quests.
Note
Periwinkle will never sell for more than 30g under any circumstances, making it more profitable to turn them into Sashimi (worth 75g) before selling them.
History
- 1.4: Can now be used in Tailoring. Can be requested in Fish Pond quests.
