Trivia[]
- Distances are measured in inches in the American-English translation, and in centimeters in the other versions.
- Unlike most other minigames of this caliber, the measurements are actually recorded differently: 1 inch in the American version roughly equivalates to 2.51 centimeters in other versions, thus scores will be x2.51 times higher in centimeters than in inches.
- This is slightly inaccurate to reality, as 1 inch should actually equivalate to 2.54 centimeters.
- Technically, this makes ties more likely in the American-English translation than elsewhere.
- Unlike most other minigames of this caliber, the measurements are actually recorded differently: 1 inch in the American version roughly equivalates to 2.51 centimeters in other versions, thus scores will be x2.51 times higher in centimeters than in inches.
- The max distance a player can knit is 399 inches/999 centimeters, only when using Spot the Sneak controls.
- When a player's scarf touches the ground, their Mii will stand up.
- If any player has yet to knit their scarf to the floor - thus remaining sitting - when the timer hits 0, they will stand up when the time ends.
- There is a single white yarn ball in each basket which doesn't get used at all. You can tell because there isn't a white yarn string connected to the knitting needles.
See how Helen does not have the white yarn connected to her needles.
- If you play a 3 player game, one of the baskets will have 2 white yarn balls instead of 1.
- From the start, all Miis are set to angry face, until the time is up, when they become happy.
- Kentaro, Sho, Masako, and Akira appear in the rules of this minigame.
