I read that you get the Outdoor Picnic Set DIY recipe from Isabelle during the morning announcements today (april 1) and I didn't. Did I find incorrect information? How do i get it?

someone moved into my island today, perhaps that prevented the announcement?

I can confirm she gave me mine this morning.

Did it go straight to your diy recipes? Or can you see the recipe in your inventory?
 
The problem is if she has another announcment that day you will not get the DIY. Had the same problem... I have to go a day back and than back to the right time. After that I got it!

that's so weird and annoying......

looks like im TTing back a day and forward one. I hate that lol
 
How do you even TT in new horizons?

I have a villager moving in so I may need to go back and forth a day, which I don't want to do, but I want the diy
 
Is it possible to get it by just waiting until tomorrow? I have turnips so I'd rather not TT back in time...

My friends in the same boat!! I hope so. Itd be super silly if the recipe was only on april 1st no matter what

You do it by changing your systems clock in your system settings. Hopefully the recipe dialogue comes in tomorrows announcements but im impatient and wanted it now lol
 
Can anyone confirm if we didn't get the recipe today, if she'll give it to us tomorrow or day after?

I ask because I had Fang move in today, and Beau tomorrow but I really want the recipe.. :/
 
Thanks everyone.

I really hope it's not locked to April 1st, I'm still hesitant because I didn't want to TT in my game for a very long time, even if it was just a day back and one forward.
 
If it is, I suppose we could buy it off of someone else but I'd much rather have it for myself.

But I feel like since sakura season happens every year in animal crossing, we might be able to get the items next year that we miss this year? I'm not sure.
 
Hoping someone can confirm its not locked to april 1st. Itd be a terrible oversight for it to be 1. Locked to april 1st and 2. Able to be overridden by as basic and frequent of a game event as a villager moving in

Yeah, that would be a terrible oversight. I don't know if it's only because maybe NPCs are locked to 1-2 things they can announce and maybe a move-in takes priority? (though I'm not even happy about Shep moving in so if I miss out because I was forced to take him I'm gonna be mad).

But it feels unfair to miss out on it - especially because a LOT of people are having move-ins today

Right. It being locked even to April 1st *and* 2nd would still lock me out of getting the recipe until next year, since I've villagers moving in both days after I went plot and mystery island happy for a few days.

And I really don't want to TT at all in this game, it kinda ruins things for me...
 
TTing won't ruin turnips as long as you have them on you. At least it didn't before April 1st Update.
 
I’m also feeling torn over this. I had a move in today and will still be having move ins tomorrow and the day after that precisely because I don’t TT and that’s the actual schedule if you play normally. Hence, most people who don’t TT probably didn’t receive that recipe because we’re all still in the process of moving in villagers. It’s not fair if they don’t give us the recipe because it’s like punishing us for playing normally and not messing with the time.

Yeah. I have my camper moving in today, and I think a lot of people who aren't doing TT like me have their camper coming today. I think if we can't receive the DIY because of this, maybe nintendo will listen if many of us complain
