About Magenta Dye
Magenta Dye is a bright pinkish-purple dye used to color many things. You can apply it to wool, beds, terracotta, glass, candles, banners, and leather armor. You can also dye a sheep with it, which makes the sheep produce magenta wool whenever you shear it.
How to get Magenta Dye
You craft magenta dye mainly from flowers. A lilac placed alone in a crafting grid gives two magenta dye, and an allium gives one. You can also combine purple dye with pink dye to make two magenta dye. Wandering traders sometimes sell magenta dye, but if you have a flower forest nearby, lilac and allium are usually the simplest source.
