How to Craft Pink Banner in Minecraft

Pink Banner in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Decoration. Minecraft has used the name Pink Banner since 1.8.

You need 6 Pink Wool and 1 Stick, plus a Crafting Table to assemble them on. The grid takes six Pink Wool in a solid 2x3 block in the top and middle rows and a single Stick in the bottom-middle cell. That comes out as 1 Pink Banner. Pink Banners double as furnace fuel: 300 ticks each, so 43 of them smelt a full stack of 64.

Pink Banner Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Pink Banner is minecraft:pink_banner. In commands the namespace may be left off, so pink_banner works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p pink_banner
Give a full stack of 16
/give @p pink_banner 16
Give it to a named player
/give Steve pink_banner 1

Cheats have to be on for Pink Banner to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.
