==List of Glitches==
===Half-jumping Kirby===
This glitch can be performed in [[Fountain Gardens]], the first stage of [[Grass Land (Kirby's Epic Yarn)|Grass Land]]. Immediately before the [[Tankbot]] section of the stage, two [[Waddle Dee#Kirby's Epic Yarn / Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn|Yarn Waddle Dee]]s with [[bead]]s in the shape of heart above them will appear on screen. The player must position [[Kirby]] so that one of Kirby's feet rests on each Waddle Dee, then press 2. Kirby will look like he is jumping, but he will remain standing on the Waddle Dees. This glitch also works in [[Big-Bean Vine]] with the [[Bow Waddle Dee]] and the scared Waddle Dee, both of which can be found to the right of the stage entrance.

===Endless Saucer shock===
This glitch is possible with two players in [[Weird Woods]], the seventh and final stage of Grass Land. In the [[Saucer]] section of the stage, if a player collects a [[Furniture|treasure]] while simultaneously using the Saucer's electric shock ability, the shock will continue endlessly once the player closes the treasure pop-up. This glitch can be cancelled out by touching the Reel Gate at the end of the level, or simply by pressing 2.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjlBJd-u0zI Video demonstrating the endless Saucer shock glitch]</ref>

These are the glitches which are possible to perform in Kirby's Epic Yarn. Please read the Glitch Disclaimer Notes before attempting any of the glitches on this page.

List of Glitches

Half-jumping Kirby

This glitch can be performed in Fountain Gardens, the first stage of Grass Land. Immediately before the Tankbot section of the stage, two Yarn Waddle Dees with beads in the shape of heart above them will appear on screen. The player must position Kirby so that one of Kirby's feet rests on each Waddle Dee, then press 2. Kirby will look like he is jumping, but he will remain standing on the Waddle Dees. This glitch also works in Big-Bean Vine with the Bow Waddle Dee and the scared Waddle Dee, both of which can be found to the right of the stage entrance.

Out of bounds glitch

The out of bounds glitch being performed

In 2-player mode, if Kirby and Prince Fluff perform consecutive Yarn Whips on each other quickly enough, they can gain height.[1] With enough height, they can eventually fall out of the top of the stage. After a certain point, it will be impossible to undo this glitch without exiting the stage. Since the inputs required to perform this glitch are so precise, it is considered virtually impossible without tool assistance.[2]

Endless Saucer shock

This glitch is possible with two players in Weird Woods, the seventh and final stage of Grass Land. In the Saucer section of the stage, if a player collects a treasure while simultaneously using the Saucer's electric shock ability, the shock will continue endlessly once the player closes the treasure pop-up. This glitch can be cancelled out by touching the Reel Gate at the end of the level, or simply by pressing 2.[3]

Donut clip

This glitch can be performed in Sweets Park, the third stage of Treat Land, when in 2-player mode. If one player is at the far right of the screen while the other is in the missing section of a spinning donut, the player in the donut will clip through it and become temporarily suspended in midair.[2]

Frozen Waddle Doo

When in Mushroom Run, the second stage of Treat Land, pushing a Yarn Waddle Doo onto a bouncy mushroom platform will cause it to freeze in a certain position while bouncing.[4]

Cannon clip

This glitch is possible in Whispy's Forest, the first stage of Dream Land. At a certain point in the stage, there is a directional cannon located in the attack range of a Bow Waddle Dee. Kirby must first be hit by the Bow Waddle Dee's arrow while entering the cannon. Then, Kirby must leave and reenter the cannon, taking a second hit from inside. If performed correctly, Kirby will clip out of the cannon, allowing the player to move a now invisible Kirby throughout the stage.[5] In some cases, Kirby's cannon momentum will be conserved and the player will be able to launch him forward by pressing 2.[6]

Yin-Yarn glitch

In phases two and four of the Yin-Yarn fight, Kirby must escape from behind a curtain by entering a door near the top of the screen. In 2-player mode, if one player throws the other at the top of the screen and then enters the door, the thrown player will be stuck in midair until Yin-Yarn drops the curtain again or is defeated.[2]

Infinite beads

Tube Town

The infinite beads glitch can be performed in Tube Town, the second stage of Space Land. By luring a Snip-Snap out of its tunnel and hitting it with a yarn ball, the player will collect beads. This can be done repeatedly to obtain a maximum streak of 999 beads.[7][8]

Whispy's Forest

The player can also reach a bead streak of 999 in Whispy's Forest. This stage includes a cannon room with four Bronto Burts carrying large beads. If Kirby defeats the Bronto Burt closest to the ground and makes a full cycle around the room, the other three Bronto Burts will continuously respawn holding their beads.[8]

Broken Anemonee

In Blub-Blub Ocean, the second stage of Water Land, performing a Yarn Whip on an Anemonee and swimming into its tentacles before it can grab Kirby will negate any damage that the tentacles usually cause.[2]
