About Pink Dye
Pink Dye is one of Minecraft's basic colour dyes. You can use it to colour wool, beds, banners, terracotta, concrete, leather armour, and shulker boxes. You can also dye a sheep pink directly, or combine it with gunpowder to make a pink firework star.
Because pink is made by mixing red and white, it is a handy early game colour if you have bonemeal and a red flower.
How to get Pink Dye
The simplest way to make Pink Dye is to craft one red dye with one white dye, which gives two pink dye. You can also craft a peony into two pink dye, or a pink tulip into one pink dye. Wandering traders sometimes sell three pink dye for one emerald, so keep an eye open if you have emeralds to spare.
