About Knotty Hoop: Yarn Untangle
Knotty Hoop is a calm, tactile logic puzzle about wool, linen and the right order of things.
Chunky wool threads cross over and under each other inside a wooden embroidery hoop. Each thread ends in a steel needle. Press and hold a needle to trace its thread: rings show every crossing where another thread still lies on top. Release to pull. If nothing is on top, the thread slips out with a soft zip. If something holds it, the thread tugs and you lose a spool. Work from the top layer down until the linen is clear.
Then the threads you pulled stitch the hoop's embroidery, stroke by stroke, and the finished piece goes into your Sampler Book.
WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT
• Arrow-style escape logic with real depth: free threads get scarce, long threads turn out to be decoys, and chains run deep.
• Fair play. A generous touch area snaps to the nearest thread, a press only shows the path and a release pulls it, and you can slide away to cancel. Your first slip in every hoop is free.
• 150 hand-tuned hoops with a gentle rhythm of easy, tricky and showpiece puzzles. Every level is checked by a solver.
• New ideas keep arriving: stitch dives that run under the fabric, sewn buttons that pin threads, felt patches that hide crossings, knots that need two pulls, and loops you must snip with scissors.
• A Sampler Book of 150 original embroidery motifs in 15 chapters: wildflowers, Ottoman tulips, sashiko waves, Nordic folk, birds, mandalas, stars and snow, and more.
• A Daily Hoop with a streak to keep.
• Relaxed mode with no spools to lose, a Dark Linen theme, and colour-blind friendly threads: every colour also has its own ply pattern.
• Pinch to zoom on big hoops. Phones and tablets, portrait and landscape.
• No ads. No timers. No energy system. Play offline.
• 16 languages.
Pull a thread, breathe out, and watch the hoop come clear.
