Why does Level 712 stall when the raccoon face is already tiny?

Dense green yarn loops and incomplete objective-bar fractions can keep the lower board active after the muzzle shrinks, which stretches the mid-game.

Which yarn color matters most at the start of Level 712?

Green is the dominant placed and inventory color, so the side columns and green objective targets decide how fast the portrait frame can collapse.

The gold square holds only scattered dark yarn blobs and a few corner specks, with no full raccoon shape or tall green columns left.

Yarn Loop level guide

Trim the pixel raccoon portrait and its green yarn side columns together so the muzzle does not collapse into cheek scraps above a full loop field.

Open on the green left and right columns plus raccoon cheek edges, not on the black nose alone.
Do not let the white muzzle vanish while green inventory balls are still feeding the border.
During the mid-game, clear green loop clusters and cheek scraps before single dark blobs.

Start on the green left column, green right column, and raccoon cheek edges while the white muzzle is still wide.
Trim the green bottom bar and outer portrait rim before the black eye patches become lone scraps.
Keep removing brown and white yarn balls from the lower play area so they do not outlive the green loop bands.
In the mid-game, clear green loop clusters, cheek scraps, and objective-bar fractions before single dark blobs.
Finish the last portrait pixels, green corner specks, and yarn ball crumbs once the lower field stops refilling.

Attempting to solve without mapping the entire dependency chain between all color routes.
Treating all colors as equal priority — find the route that will be blocked first and clear it.
Missing the cascade technique: intentionally opening one route to unlock two subsequent clears.
