In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make purple concrete powder, place 4 sand, 4 gravel and 1 purple dye in the 3×3 crafting grid.

When making purple concrete powder, it is important that the sand, gravel and purple dye are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 1 gravel in the first box, 1 sand in the second box, and 1 gravel in the third box. In the second row, there should be 1 sand in the first box, 1 purple dye in the second box, and 1 sand in the third box. In the third row, there should be 1 gravel in the first box, 1 sand in the second box, and 1 gravel in the third box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for purple concrete powder.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the purple concrete powder will appear in the box to the right.
