What is Yarn Master?

Yarn Master is an untangling puzzle where you drag the ends of colored threads. A level clears only when no threads cross and none touch a pin. An arrangement can look nearly finished and still have one small contact holding it back.

Look at the whole thread, not just its end

Moving one endpoint changes the route of its entire thread. Give tangled strands room to separate, then check the pins before calling the board clear.

How to play

  1. Drag a thread endpoint toward an open part of the board.
  2. Separate crossing threads and move any strand touching a pin.
  3. Release and let the yarn settle before checking the remaining tangle.

Controls

Mouse or touch: drag an endpoint
Reposition a thread

Levels and progression

  • The campaign contains 36 puzzles. It starts with two threads and no pins, then introduces boards with as many as eight threads and six pins.
  • Finishing a campaign puzzle unlocks the next one. Unlocked levels, best star results and the last level reached are saved so you can return through level select.

A useful approach

  • Open up the outer threads first. Extra space makes it easier to see which inner crossing still needs work.

Yarn Master FAQ

Why has a level not cleared when the threads look separate?

Check for a thread touching a pin, as well as small crossings. Both prevent completion.

Can I return to an earlier puzzle?

Yes. Level select lets you replay unlocked levels.

How does the puzzle get harder?

Later boards add more threads and pins. Give yourself space to move an endpoint without creating a new crossing elsewhere; pins remain obstacles even when the threads are separate.
