Usage

Applying banner patterns

Interface for the loom in Java Edition.
Interface for the loom in Bedrock Edition.

Using on a loom opens its interface. It has 3 slots for a banner, a dye and an optional banner pattern item. When a banner is put in, a list of patterns appears in the center part. 10 patterns require the following banner patterns: Flower Charge, Creeper Charge, Skull Charge, Thing, Snout, Globe, Field Masoned, Bordure Indented, Flow, and Guster. Putting a banner pattern in its respective slot makes the loom show only that pattern.

Selecting a pattern or using a banner pattern on the list shows the preview of the banner after applying, if a dye is present. To finish, the player must take the banner in the slot beneath the preview. The original banner and the dye disappear from their respective slots, but the banner pattern is not consumed.

Profession

Main article: Job site block

If a loom has not been claimed by a villager, any nearby unemployed villager has a chance to change their profession to shepherd and claim the loom as their job site block.

Fuel

A loom can be used as fuel in a furnace to smelt 1.5 items.

Note blocks

Looms can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass" sounds.
