Loom
Crafting Recipe
2 string across the top-left, 4 planks filling the left 2x2 below = 1 loom.
What It Does
The loom combines banner + dye + pattern into emblazoned banners. Basic crafting wastes pattern items and offers only 6 designs; the loom keeps pattern items (skull, Mojang, globe and more) reusable and shows every option visually.
Pro Tips
Dye a base, then stack up to 6 pattern layers for flags, emblems and logos. Name a banner and it shows as a marker on your map — the best exploration bookmark.
