Usage

Dyeing sheep

Using a dye on an unsheared sheep turns its fleece the dye's colour, and uses up the dye. On a sheared sheep, or one already that colour, a dye does nothing and is not used up.

Dyeing wool

A dye crafted with a block of white wool makes one wool of the dye's colour. Wool of any other colour cannot be dyed.
