Snag-Stitches are thin, orange enemies that appear in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World, which resemble a piece of leather with metal rings, and have an angry face with bushy eyebrows similar to those of Blarggs. They only appear in their titular course, Snag-Stitch Mountain. Snag-Stitches normally appear moving either left and right within a certain range, up and down within a certain range, in a square path, or in a circular path. These ranges and paths are denoted by purple crayon lines on the wall of the background. Certain Snag-Snitches found in the course's Umbrella Yoshi area do not move, and can appear separate from a background with purple lines. Snag-Stitches damage Yoshi on contact.
Snag-Stitches cannot be defeated. However, if a yarn ball is thrown at them, they get tied to the wall in the background, with its metal rings closely knit together. In this state, they are bent and folded in a way to act as a flat platform. They bob a little with Yoshi's weight. After a short time, they shake then break free of the yarn ball, resuming normal movement. Correctly timing yarn balls to have the Snag-Stitch serve as platforms at the appropriate height is required to complete Snag-Stitch Mountain.
