Snag-Stitches are orange metallic enemies with bushy eyebrows similar to those of Blarggs, that appear in Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World. 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 threads in 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 a purple thread. 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. In this state, they are a flat platform, thinner than their normal active state. 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.
