Yarn Loop level guide
Yarn Loop Level 816 Walkthrough
Peel the silver border and snowy trees away from the red lamppost, reserving its linked red bobbin until the stem is exposed.
Verified Board Notes
- Initial Layout Geometry
- A silver-bordered snowy scene surrounds a red lamppost with a yellow lantern and green base. Four supply tops are red 20, dark purple 30, cyan 40 and blue 50; five storage spaces begin empty.
- Goal / Target Area
- Expose and remove the red stem beneath cyan/white snow and purple branches, then clear the green base and final burgundy center stitch.
- Opening Moves
- Column 2 dark purple 30; linked column 1 red 20 / column 2 purple 20; column 1 metal 20; column 2 royal blue 20. Follow with column 3 cyan 40, metal 50 and column 4 blue 50.
- Danger Zone
- The early beige 0 / cyan pair and later red 19 / purple 0 pair still need two track places. Parking the covered red pair preserves room for cyan/white supplies that expose its target.
- Unique Mechanics
- Metal bobbins strip the textured frame, while linked partners remain coupled after one reaches zero. The original red/purple pair stays relevant from the opening to the final stem removal.
Quick Tips for Level 816
- The opening red 20 / purple 20 pair eventually becomes red 19 / purple 0. Store it while cyan and white clear the snow; its red cannot reach the covered stem yet.
- A linked beige 0 / cyan remainder still uses two track places. Wait for room for the complete pair before relaunching it.
- Metal 20 and metal 50 clear the textured border. White and ordinary beige are separate supplies for the pale picture details.
- The final purple bobbin is not the last clearing action: keep brown 1 and burgundy 1 running after it disappears.
How to Solve Yarn Loop Level 816 — Full Solution
- Start with column 2 dark purple 30. Send the linked column 1 red 20 / column 2 purple 20 pair, then column 1 metal 20 and column 2 royal blue 20.
- Take column 3 cyan 40, its metal 50, and column 4 blue 50. Replay royal blue 5. Store dark purple 26 and the red 20 / purple 9 pair.
- Send column 4 white 30. Once it removes the snow edge, resend dark purple 26 and the red/purple pair. Park the pair again at red 20 / purple 7.
- Take column 1 ochre 10 and dark brown 20. Send the linked column 2 beige 30 / column 1 cyan 40 pair, then column 2 blue 50. Replay dark purple 22.
- Recycle the beige/cyan pair even when beige is 0, together with the ochre 7, dark brown and blue remainders. After cyan clears, take column 1 white 30.
- Send column 3 green 30, resend dark brown 8, then take column 4 yellow 20 and beige 30. Reuse beige 1 when the pale edge opens.
- Take the linked column 3 red 10 / column 4 brown 10 pair, column 4 yellow 10 and column 3 beige 20. Reuse yellow 6 and dark brown 6 as space opens.
- Send column 3 green 20. Let yellow finish, then replay red 20 / purple 7 once the lower pole opens. Park its red 19 / purple 2 return and send column 2 dark brown 10.
- Cycle dark brown 8 and the newer red/brown pair around the lower outline. The pair reaches red 3 / brown 0; it still occupies two places.
- Replay red 19 / purple 2 to empty purple, then store the pair. Take column 2 dark purple 30 and the linked column 1 royal blue 20 / column 2 blue 50 pair.
- Resend the blue pair at royal blue 0 / blue 9, alternating with the dark purple, dark brown and red 3 / brown 0 remainders. Let the red/brown pair finish on the exposed base.
- Send column 1 cyan 40 and white 30. Reuse dark purple 3, dark brown 6 and returning cyan. Resend white 3 after cyan exposes its snow stitches; keep red 19 / purple 0 stored.
- Take column 1 royal blue 20 and column 2 dark brown 10. Send the linked blue 50 / beige 40 pair across columns 1–2, then replay its blue 19 / beige 20 return.
- Run the same pair through blue 0 / beige 2 while cycling dark brown 1. Once the pair empties, leave the newer dark brown 9 in storage.
- Take column 2 white 20 and blue 40. Replay dark brown 1 and blue as it falls through 28 and 20, narrowing the remaining snow.
- Send column 3 red 10, then linked column 3 purple 10 / column 4 dark purple 20. Replay the pair at dark purple 4 / purple 0 to finish the exposed branch edge.
- Take column 3 green 20 and reuse dark brown 1. Send column 4 burgundy 10 and yellow 10, cycling blue with burgundy 3 and yellow 2.
- Take column 4 cyan 30. Replay blue 10, burgundy 2 and yellow 1 around it. Send column 1 white 20 and replay its white 3 remainder.
- Send linked column 3 dark purple 20 / column 4 royal blue 10. Its return is dark purple 8 / blue 0; leave two places for each relaunch.
- Finish white and reuse blue 1 and cyan 1 alongside burgundy 2. Replay the dark-purple pair down to dark purple 1 to expose the red stem.
- Relaunch red 19 / purple 0. When it returns at red 5, alternate it with the dark-purple pair, cyan 1 and blue 1, then send the red pair again.
- After the tiny blue remnants clear, send column 4 purple 20, column 3 green 20 and its brown 20. Green removes the scattered base stitches.
- Resend red 2 / purple 0 and burgundy 2. Let the new purple and brown bobbins remove the branch fragments.
- Keep purple 1, brown 1 and burgundy 1 running. Purple empties, then brown; burgundy clears the last central stitch from the right side at about 482 seconds. Wait for the in-game celebration.
Colors in this level:
Red, Burgundy, Dark purple, Purple, Royal blue, Blue, Cyan, White, Beige, Green, Yellow, Brown, Silver
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Repeatedly sending red 19 / purple 0 while snow still covers the lamppost, instead of advancing the cyan and white supplies.
- Counting beige 0 in the beige/cyan pair as a freed track place and trying to relaunch the pair with only one space.
- Stopping when purple 1 disappears: brown 1 and finally burgundy 1 still have central stitches to clear.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the red bobbin remain at 19 for so long?
Its stem stitches are covered by the snowy branches and dark outlines. Store the linked red 19 / purple 0 pair while advancing cyan, white and dark purple, then replay it when the red pole opens.
Which bobbin finishes Level 816?
The remaining burgundy 1 clears the final central stitch. Purple 1 and brown 1 empty just before it, so keep the burgundy bobbin running for the final right-side pass.
