2. Add Items to make a Golden Hoe
In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make a golden hoe, place 2 gold ingots and 2 sticks in the 3×3 crafting grid.
When making a golden hoe, it is important that the gold ingots and sticks are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. There should be 2 gold ingots placed in the first row (the last box in the row should be left empty). In the second row, 1 stick should be in the middle box. In the third row, 1 stick should be in the middle box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for a golden hoe.
Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the golden hoe will appear in the box to the right.
3. Move the Golden Hoe to Inventory
Once you have crafted a golden hoe, you need to move the new item to your inventory.
