Building with it

Black Carpet uses black wool, dyed with an ink sac or a wither rose. It swallows light in a way no other carpet does, which makes it useful as a border around brighter colours or as the floor of a room lit only by lanterns. Two wool give three carpets, as with every colour in the set.
