Minecraft wool: colors, how to get it and uses

Wool comes from sheep: shearing an adult with shears gives one to three, and killing an unsheared sheep drops one. It comes out in the sheep’s color. Lambs cannot be sheared, and neither Fortune nor Looting gives extra wool.

The most common color depends on the biome: white in temperate ones, black in cold ones and brown in warm ones, though white, black, brown and gray sheep can appear anywhere, and very rarely pink. A sheep named jeb_ cycles through colors nonstop but drops wool of its real color.

There are 16 colors, with white as the undyed wool. Unlike glass or terracotta, any color can be dyed again into another. Shears break it fastest, it catches fire easily and barely resists explosions.

Its most technical use is blocking vibrations: a wool block between a sculk sensor and the noise keeps it from detecting anything. That is why ancient cities have corridors of gray wool, and why it is worth carrying some when you explore them.

With 16 flat colors, wool is a handy way to make backgrounds or pixel lettering for thumbnails.
