Quick notes

  • Getting to know the staff. Pelly works during the day and Phyllis at night.
  • Give each errand a destination. Take unidentified fossils to Blathers, check tools and rotating stock at Nook’s shop, and visit the Able Sisters for clothing and patterns.
  • Shampoodle. Harriet's salon for hairstyles and hair colours opens once Nook's store has reached Nookington's.
