There are several reasons to dye a Sheep in Minecraft and while Wool itself can be dyed, Sheep can directly be dyed by interacting with them. This has lots of benefits as dyed sheep are not only subjectively cool looking, you can also save lots of dye this way in the long run. Do not waste your dye on singular pieces of wool.
