Yarn Loop level guide
Yarn Loop Level 831 Walkthrough
Unravel the purple halo and yellow-green chick, clear the upper-left targets, then finish the linked color pairs and final olive pixel.
Verified Board Notes
- Initial Layout Geometry
- A yellow and olive chick with brown outlines, red-orange cheeks and feet sits inside a purple halo. An olive 500 square is above-left. The five front supplies are purple 10, brown 30, purple 20, yellow 40 and brown 20, with five tray slots above them.
- Goal / Target Area
- Clear the upper-left square and later pink heart along with the entire chick. The final olive pixel disappears after 3:10, and the empty board with 5/5 free track places is visible at 3:11.
- Opening Moves
- Send C1 purple 10, C2 brown 30, exposed C2 purple 10 and C3 purple 20; then work C3 through purple 10, orange 10 and yellow 30. Keep the returned yellow 29 available for later passes.
- Danger Zone
- The linked olive 30 quintet needs all five track places. Do not launch it while the early yellow or brown leftovers are still circulating. Later, count both members of pairs even when one reads zero.
- Unique Mechanics
- The olive square gives way to a pink 30 heart. Supply links build a five-olive chain, then mixed red/olive, pink/yellow and orange/olive pairs, plus a vertical olive 30/10 pair.
Quick Tips for Level 831
- Keep the original five column numbers when supplies disappear; the last olive 20 belongs to column 5.
- The five linked olive 30 bobbins need an empty track. Work the yellow 29 and 39 tray leftovers before sending that group.
- A linked pair can return with a zero member. Send the complete pair again if its partner still has yarn.
- Use the late pink/yellow pair against the small upper-left heart before the final yellow and olive cleanup.
How to Solve Yarn Loop Level 831 — Full Solution
- Number supply columns 1–5 from left to right. Open with C1 purple 10, C2 brown 30, newly exposed C2 purple 10, and C3 purple 20. Follow with C3 purple 10, orange 10 and yellow 30. The yellow returns as 29 into the tray.
- At about 0:15, take C5 brown 20 then purple 20. Work down C4 through yellow 40, purple 30 and purple 10. The yellow returns at 39; leave that remainder in the tray while the purple strips the halo.
- Around 0:26, send C4 brown 20 then purple 20 to expose its olive link. Take C5 brown 30, brown 10 and red 10 in order. Red comes back at 3, and an olive 30 is exposed at the right end.
- Around 0:40, take C3 orange 10, C2 brown 20 and C2 purple 20. Resend red 3 and the brown remainder of 11 as they return. Finish the purple remainder to remove the last halo; C2 now shows yellow 30.
- From about 0:53, send tray yellow 29 and 39 as spaces allow, and reuse orange 6. Add C2 yellow 30 to expose another olive 30. At about 1:04, take C1 brown 20 and C1 yellow 30; reuse orange 5 and brown 11. Take the next C1 yellow 30 around 1:19.
- Send C1 red 10, revealing the fifth olive 30. Keep the connected five-olive group in supply while the tray orange 3, brown 7 and yellow 25 make another circuit. Reuse the small yellow 2 remainder as well.
- Continue those same tray bobbins through about 1:54. Orange 3 and red 9 wait at 1:40; yellow returns as 16, then as 14 after another pass. Brown reduces to 1 and finishes. These are repeat trips, with no new supply choice during this interval.
- With all five track spaces available at about 1:55, launch the linked olive 30 group across C1–C5. Let every member finish even when some show zero. The upper-left target becomes a pink heart marked 30. Reuse tray yellow 14, red 9 and orange 3.
- Around 2:07, take C3 pink 10 with its linked olive 30, followed by C3 orange 10. Then send C1 red 10 and linked olive 30. This reveals the C1 pink 30/C2 yellow 30 pair; orange returns with 4.
- Resend orange 4, launch the pink 30/yellow 30 pair, and follow with C2's vertical olive 30/olive 10 pair. Reuse the pink/yellow pair after it returns; it is still working at 25/22 around 2:28. Pink clears the small heart.
- Let the olive pair finish and keep the pink/yellow remainder moving, including yellow 5. Take C4 brown 20 around 2:36, then C5 red 10 with linked olive 30. This exposes a horizontal yellow 30/yellow 30 pair at C4–C5. Leave C1 brown 20 until the final brown stitches are reachable.
- Clear the pink/yellow leftovers, reuse the red/olive pair, and dispatch the yellow 30/yellow 30 pair around 2:47. Next take C4 orange 20 with linked olive 20. The yellow pair returns at 13/17 and red/olive at 5/0; C5 still holds an unlinked olive 20.
- Resend yellow 13/17 and red 5/olive 0 when their full pairs fit, then take C1 brown 20. Reuse orange/olive at 2/6. Later returns include red 1/olive 0, yellow 1/8 and brown 3; send these remaining groups again.
- Send the final C5 olive 20 as track space opens around 3:05. Finish the yellow pair's 0/3 remainder. The olive bobbin reaches 2 at 3:09 and 1 at 3:10; let it remove the last stitch. By 3:11 the board is empty and the free-space counter is back to 5/5.
Colors in this level:
Purple, Brown, Yellow, Olive green, Orange, Red, Pink
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sending the five linked olive 30 bobbins before all five places are available, while yellow 29 or 39 is still on the track.
- Treating red 5/olive 0 as finished because the olive partner is empty; the red must make another trip.
- Using the brighter yellow leftovers as though they were the final olive 20; the last olive supply is still in column 5.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I launch the five connected olive bobbins in Level 831?
Wait until the early brown leftovers have finished and all five track places are free. The demonstrated launch is around 1:55, after several useful trips by the large yellow leftovers.
Why does a red and olive pair return when the olive bobbin says zero?
The linked group still contains red yarn. It returns as 5/0 and later 1/0; resend the complete pair to remove the remaining red stitches.
What is the final color in this chick puzzle?
The last unlinked olive 20 comes from column 5. It reaches one yarn at about 3:10 before removing the final pixel.
