Carpets are very thin, the same thickness of a pressure plate. A carpet will perfectly cover 1 block.

Side view of a carpet |
Carpets are made by putting two blocks of the same color wool in a crafting table.
 |
Notice it yields 3 carpet squares |
You can set down a carpet by pressing the use item button on the ground while holding a carpet. When the block under the carpet is broken, the carpet will be broken too. But there is a way to place a carpet over a redstone wire without it breaking.
 |
You can still jump and stand on the carpet! |
THANKS FOR VIEWING!
