All 10 Banner Patterns in Minecraft (And How to Get Each)

Guide Java Bedrock

Quick answer: There are 10 banner patterns: 6 crafted from paper plus an item (Flower Charge, Creeper Charge, Skull Charge, Thing, Field Masoned, Bordure Indented) and 4 found or traded (Globe, Snout, Flow, Guster). Use them in a loom with a banner and dye - the pattern item is never consumed.

What you need

A loom (2 string, 2 planks)
Paper for the 6 craftable patterns
A banner and dye per design

Step by step

Flower Charge: paper + oxeye daisy - the flower icon.
Creeper Charge: paper + creeper head - the creeper face, the community favorite.
Skull Charge: paper + wither skeleton skull - the skull and crossbones.
Thing: paper + enchanted golden apple - the Mojang logo, the most expensive pattern in the game.
Field Masoned: paper + a bricks block - the brickwork pattern.
Bordure Indented: paper + vines - the fancy scalloped border.
Globe: traded from a master-level cartographer - the world map pattern.
Snout: looted from bastion remnant chests - the piglin snout.
Flow and Guster: looted from vaults and ominous vaults in trial chambers - the two newest patterns.
Using them: loom plus banner plus dye plus pattern - the pattern item stays in your inventory, so one pattern decorates unlimited banners.
Layer up to 6 patterns on one banner (16 on Bedrock with commands), and copy a finished banner by crafting it with a blank banner of the same base color.

Java vs Bedrock

Thing is the only pattern that costs an uncraftable item - the enchanted golden apple must be looted before you can make Mojang-logo banners.

Versions: All 10 patterns exist on Java and Bedrock. The 6-shape layering limit applies to survival on both.

Frequently asked questions

How many banner patterns are there?

10: six craftable (Flower Charge, Creeper Charge, Skull Charge, Thing, Field Masoned, Bordure Indented) and four from loot or trading (Globe, Snout, Flow, Guster).

Do banner patterns get used up?

No - the pattern item is never consumed in the loom. Craft one Creeper Charge and it serves forever.

How do I copy a banner?

Craft the finished banner together with a blank banner of the same base color - the design duplicates onto the blank one.
