About Red Wool

Red Wool is a bright red building block made from dyed wool. It behaves like other wool: you can place it as a full block, use it for pixel art or colourful builds, and craft it into matching red carpets or a red bed. Wool blocks are soft and flammable, so keep them away from fire and lava.

How to get Red Wool

The usual way to get Red Wool is to craft it. Combine one wool with one red dye in a crafting grid to make one Red Wool. Red dye comes from poppies, rose bushes, or beetroot, so it is fairly easy to gather once you have a farm or a flower patch.

You can also dye a sheep red, then shear it. The sheep gives red wool, and regrows its wool in the same colour after eating grass.
