Hollow Knight: Silksong has its fair share of vendors who sell several tools and items, most of which can make exploration easier or boss fights much more manageable. Most of the NPCs mentioned below require a lot of Rosaries if the players want to buy out their whole stock, which means that farming enemies for the Rosaries is something to take into consideration.
Some of the vendors have unlock requirements and are tied to wishes, after which they sell more items to the players. This guide includes their locations and what they sell in Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Pebb
- Location: Bone Bottom
