Extra Wool
Extra Wool gives Forge players more wool colour variants, along with wool slabs and stairs in those colours for building.
What it does
The mod adds wool variants to the game, so builders have more colours to pick from when they decorate with wool. Alongside the new blocks come slab and stair versions of the wool, which fit into roof lines, steps and seating in the same colour as the full block.
Recipes for the new slabs and stairs are added as custom crafting entries, so they can be made from the wool blocks without any extra setup. The mod is built for the Forge loader and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files cover 1.20.1 only, and the latest file is 1.0.0, published on 2026-07-29. The code is licensed as All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

Use cases
Colour-coded builds
Builders can separate rooms, banners and roofs by colour using the added wool variants.
Who it’s for: Players who build with wool on Forge 1.20.1 and want more colours and shapes than vanilla offers. Server owners who run the mod need it installed on the server and on every client.
How it compares
Sheer is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 that is also client and server, under All rights reserved. Rainbow Wool targets 1.12.2 – 1.19.2 on Forge with the same environment and license, so it covers older game versions than Extra Wool. Woolweaves is Forge only for 1.20.1 and client and server, but it is published under the AFL-3.0 license instead of All rights reserved.
