'''Yarn balls''' are items in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]''. They are the equivalent of [[Yoshi's Egg|Yoshi eggs]] from most [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'']] games. Yarn balls can be thrown at wireframes to create platforms, [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s, windmill blades, [[Present Box]]es or a [[magic carpet]] around them and are also used to attack enemies (with some becoming bound by their yarn like [[Lakitu]]s and [[Ukiki]]s), including frame enemies to stun them, and collect items. They can be obtained by swallowing an enemy, hitting a [[Egg Block|Yarn Basket]] or via [[Egg Plant]]s.
A '''Yarn Ball''' is at item specific to ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', replacing the [[Yoshi Eggs]] from previous games. It is the equivalent of a [[Yoshi Egg]] from most [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'']] games. Yarn Balls can be thrown at frame structures to weave [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s or [[Present Box]]es around them, as well as attack enemies and retrieve items. They can be obtained after [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] unravels an enemy, or hits an [[Egg Block]] from beneath.


Yarn balls come in three different sizes. The smallest size is the most common and breaks apart at only one encounter with an enemy or object, such as a [[Winged Cloud]] or a wireframe. Bigger yarn balls can pass through multiple such elements, becoming smaller in the process until they break apart as well. In the battle against [[Baby Bowser|Mega Baby Bowser]], Yoshi can eat a giant yarn ball that turns into three yarn balls that are approximately his size.
Yarn Balls come in three different sizes: the standard size, the large size, and the extra large size; aside from their dimensions, standard, large, and extra large yarn balls differ by resistance when thrown. Whilst the standard-sized ones break after only one encounter with an enemy or object, such as a [[Winged Cloud]], the bigger yarn balls can pass through a multitude of such elements before unstringing themselves.
 
The color of a yarn ball matches the color of the enemy Yoshi swallowed; for example, eating a red [[Shy Guy]] results in a red yarn ball. Yarn balls from Yarn Baskets, however, are randomly colored, but might follow a pattern of colors depending on the level's theme and color palette. When a yarn ball is thrown or spit out into the water, it bounces like a skipping stone across it.

The color of a Yarn Ball depends on the color of the enemy Yoshi swallowed. For example, eating a red [[Shy Guy]] results in acquiring a red yarn ball, and after eating a [[Boo Guy]], the yarn ball will be white, and so on. Yarn Balls from Egg Blocks, however, are randomly colored, but might follow a strict pattern of colors depending on the level's theme and the color tints of its background elements.
