Yarn Loop level guide

Yarn Loop Level 17 Walkthrough

easy

Level 17's goal is to keep the circular medallion shrinking while clearing the corner triangles before they become final locks. Pink and white handle most of the round bands, but black corner cleanup cannot wait too long. If the corners survive into the late game, the last center bands stall behind pieces that look minor but block the route.

Quick Tips for Level 17 (spoiler-free)

  • Open with exposed pink and white pulls to shave the round bands before splitting attention.
  • Reserve most black deployment for corner triangles that are ready to disappear.
  • If the bottom and left edges stack around 00:44-00:50, clear the black corner blocker before finishing more ring work.

How to Solve Yarn Loop Level 17 — Full Solution

  1. Open with the exposed pink and white pulls so the outer round bands begin shrinking immediately.
  2. Keep working around one side of the circle instead of scattering taps across every available color.
  3. Save most black deployment until the corner triangles are ready to disappear, then remove them before the circle gets too small.
  4. Rotate purple in once the center bands are exposed and the outer pink and white work has already shortened.
  5. If the bottom and left edges stack during 00:44-00:50, prioritize the black corner cleanup first, then finish the remaining ring bands.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Starting a color before checking whether its full loop route is open.
  • Clearing the nearest yarn segment while leaving its matching color blocked.
  • Rushing the first move before spotting which color has the cleanest path.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why do the small corner triangles matter so much?

    They act like independent locks, so if black corner cleanup arrives too late, the last center bands stall behind pieces that look minor.

  • When should purple start doing meaningful work?

    Purple is best once the center bands are exposed and the outer pink and white bands have already shortened.

  • What usually breaks the late clog on this board?

    The board clears once a black pull removes the last stubborn corner triangle and the stalled round-band work can move again.
