Hey everyone! This puzzle shares some rules with a puzzle from last year called "All dots within a region..." I hope you enjoy!
Place the digits 1-9 once in every row and column.
Kropki: Black dots pair cells in a 2:1 ratio. White dots pair consecutive cells.
Knit nine colorful scarves to fill the grid. Every scarf is one cell wide and nine cells long, contains each digit 1-9 once, and does not branch or touch itself, not even diagonally. Given kropki dots must pair cells within the same scarf. All possible dots within a scarf are given, but no dots on borders are given.
Bonus clue: There is a bonus clue to be determined by the solver, this clue is not necessary to resolve the puzzle.
Lösungscode: The order of digits in the only scarf without kropki dots. Begin at the top left cell of the scarf.

So much fun! I really appreciate the final disambiguation. Never figured out the secret rule on my own tho. Very cool once it was pointed out to me.

Lovely! The bonus rule is quite nice too. I used the negative constaint a couple of times to build scarf borders but I imagine it wasn't strictly necessary.

Incredibly fun puzzle to solve. A good chaos construction is always a blast, and this one had a really unique flow to the solution. Thank you for giving us this gem!

So good - with an amazing realization of the bonus rule! Would love to see a puzzle with less given clues, but with the same rule set!

Beautifully constructed, very fun and approachable while still having some interesting steps and logic for someone like me who’s quite experienced with CC. Kicking myself for not figuring out the bonus rule now that I’ve seen the answer in another comment haha

I enjoyed this a lot. Amusingly, I was staring at what appeared to be a symmetry at the end for a good minute before I twigged about the negative constraint (which I hadn't needed until then).
--thank you! I also held onto the negative constraint until the end when I was testing it. If you knew the bonus rule for certain, you wouldn't need the negative constraint.
