Yarn Loop level guide
Yarn Loop Level 875 Walkthrough
Lift the blue curtain with the linked red 50 chain, then unpick the black and white cat behind it: yellow eyes, pink nose and ear trim, white whiskers and a blue shirt on a red background.
Verified Board Notes
- Initial Layout Geometry
- A blue curtain with a hanging 200 tag covers most of the board, framed by red border stitches, with a light blue band and a red block below it. Track and storage start empty. The top supply row is four red 50s linked in one chain, above pink 20, hot pink 10, blue 30 and black 30, with more rows (dark gray 20, red 50, yellow 20, blue 40, white 30) beneath.
- Goal / Target Area
- First the red border around the curtain (the tag must count down from 200 to zero), then the whole cat portrait. The portrait peels from right to left, and the left ear, red edge and the last pink and white stitches on the left go last.
- Opening Moves
- Send the four-bobbin red 50 chain first; it fills four track places and strips the red border while the curtain tag counts down from 200. When the curtain lifts, send blue 30 for the shirt and pink 20 for the ear outline, then hot pink 10 and black 30.
- Danger Zone
- Late in the level, linked white, yellow and black groups lap together with spent zeros attached, and the track fills up or has one place left. Adding another bobbin then has nowhere to go; wait for a group to finish.
- Unique Mechanics
- Timed curtain: a blue curtain hides the picture, and its tag counts down from 200 as stitches are removed around it. At zero it lifts. Linked bobbins: lines join supply bobbins (four red 50s, white 30 with yellow 20, red 50 with blue 40, white and black 20s), and the whole group enters the track together.
Storage: the five slots where returning bobbins park until their color is reachable again. Linked: bobbins joined by a bar leave together and take one track place each.
Quick Tips for Level 875
- Spend the opening on the red chain alone. Nothing else can reach the picture until the curtain tag hits zero.
- Peel the portrait from the right side; the left ear, red edge and shirt line cannot be reached until the stitches in front of them are gone.
- Count track places before sending a linked group. A pair needs two free places and the red chain needs four.
How to Solve Yarn Loop Level 875 — Full Solution
- The board opens hidden behind a blue curtain whose hanging tag reads 200. The whole top row of supply is one linked chain of four red 50s. Send it: all four red bobbins enter together and take four track places, leaving one free place.
- Let the red chain lap and unpick the red border around the curtain. The tag counts down as red stitches come off from 200; when it reaches zero the curtain lifts and reveals the cat.
- With the board open (a black and white cat with yellow eyes and a pink nose, in a blue shirt on a red background), send blue 30 from column 3 for the blue shirt on the right side, then pink 20 from column 1 for the pink ear outline and the pink stripe.
- Send hot pink 10 (column 2) and black 30 (column 4) to start peeling the right cheek and the black head outline. A pink 10 or yellow remainder may wait in storage; that is fine at this stage.
- Send dark gray 20 when it tops column 1 for the gray fur on the head, then the red 50 in column 2 for the red background on the right side.
- Send yellow 20 and the white 30 / yellow 20 linked pair once the right eye and white muzzle are exposed. Yellow clears the eyes from the right, and white clears the face and whiskers.
- Work the face inward from the right with black 30s, the linked white and black 20s, and blue 40s on the shirt. The picture shrinks to a narrow strip on the left side of the board.
- Pressure point: linked white, yellow and black groups lap with zeros attached and the track sits full or one place from full. Send nothing new until one group finishes; send the parked yellow 20 and pink 1 only when their pixels are on an exposed edge.
- Send the red 50 / blue 40 linked pair from column 4 for the red background on the left and the remaining shirt. Black 20 and the last white 30 go to the left ear and whiskers.
- Finish with the bottom supply: pink 10, red 30 and dark navy 20, which clears the dark blue line under the shirt. Send the parked black and pink remainders when their pixels face the track.
- Clear the last pink and white stitches on the left side; a white bobbin takes the final stitch.
Colors in this level:
Red, Blue, Pink, Hot pink, Black, Dark gray, White, Yellow, Dark navy
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Sending other colors before the curtain lifts. They lap with nothing to pull and crowd the red chain.
- Releasing a linked white, yellow and black group while another group is still lapping and the track is full.
- Forgetting the dark navy line under the shirt; it needs the dark navy 20 from the bottom of the supply.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I open the curtain in Level 875?
Send the linked chain of four red 50s. Its tag counts down from 200 as the red border comes off, and the curtain lifts at zero.
Why do several bobbins enter the track at once in Level 875?
They are linked by lines in the supply. A linked group always moves together and needs one track place per bobbin.
How do I clear the dark blue line under the shirt in Level 875?
Only the dark navy 20 near the bottom of the supply takes that line, so it is easy to overlook. Send it when you reach the bottom bobbins, alongside pink 10 and red 30.
