Gameplay questions

Stuck in the game somewhere? Wondering how something works? Have questions about in-game settings? Here are answers to common gameplay questions.

Possible spoilers below.

Tips for beating a Level

Knittens will pick a Recommended cat ability to use to complete the goal for a level. You can try using a different ability instead and see if that helps with your strategy!

Also, don't forget to combine bonuses like Birds, Flowers, Buttons, and Rainbow yarn.

How to earn Fashion Points

You can knit an item as many items you want, but you can only earn a maximum of 2x the Fashion Points per item.

For example, if you knit the item for the first time without Pattern Yarn you'll receive the base amount of points. If you knit the same item a second time using Pattern Yarn you'll earn the base amount of points again. This means the maximum has been met. If you knit the same item again for a third time you won't get any more Fashion Points.

You can also earn 2x the Fashion Points by knitting an item with Pattern Yarn for the first time. After doing this, you won't get any more Fashion Points if you knit it again because the maximum was reached.

Can I restart the game?

The game progress is tied to your Netflix profile through cloud saves. You won’t be able to restart the game using the same profile, but you can replay levels.
