White Carpet at a glance

White Carpet comes from crafting, and Utility Blocks is where it sits as a block. A slot of White Carpet holds 64, nine slots hold 576, and 1728 fill a chest. As fuel White Carpet is thin: 3 per item smelted, 21 items out of a full stack.

White is the colour the game starts from: sheep grow white wool on their own, so White Carpet needs no dye at all, and white dye (bone meal or a lily of the valley) exists to lighten the other fifteen. The game rates White Carpet at 0.1 hardness. It carries the same 0.1 into an explosion. It sits between White Bed and White Concrete in Utility Blocks, number 327 of 340 there.

Frequently asked questions about White Carpet

  1. White Wool going into White Carpet, the recipe this answer describes

    How do you get White Carpet in Minecraft?

    White Carpet is crafted from White Wool at a Crafting Table, and each craft returns 3.

  2. The white dye that goes into White Carpet, beside White Carpet itself

    What dye does White Carpet need?

    None. White Carpet is white wool, and sheep grow that without any dye.

  3. 64 White Carpet drawn together, the full slot the answer counts

    How many White Carpet can you stack?

    64 White Carpet fills a slot, and that slot costs 44 White Wool, since each one returns 3, which is 22 crafts at the crafting table.

  4. White Carpet beside a furnace, which is where its 3.35 seconds of burning go

    Can White Carpet be used as fuel?

    White Carpet is a small fuel: 3.35 seconds apiece, against the 10 seconds a furnace spends on one item, so 3 of them cover a single smelt. What is left of a White Carpet stays in the furnace, so no part of White Carpet goes to waste.

  5. How long does White Carpet take to break?

    White Carpet has hardness 0.1, and it has blast resistance 0.1. Both numbers on White Carpet being equal is the usual case, and it is not built to hold off explosives. It sits outside the tool tags entirely, and hands on it work fine. Java 26.2 stores White Carpet with those figures unchanged, so it reads the same here.

  6. White Carpet on its own, since nothing in the game is crafted from it

    What is White Carpet used for?

    White Carpet is a thin white decorative floor covering crafted from White Wool. Mobs cannot spawn on carpet, and it can be placed on llamas as decoration.

Building with it

White Carpet costs nothing but wool, and white wool comes straight off a sheep, so it is the carpet most builds start with. Two wool give three carpets, which makes it the cheapest way to cover a floor, and because it sits flush with the block below it, it hides the seams in a mixed-material floor without raising the ceiling.
