Have you ever done a jigsaw puzzle challenge like this? Be sure to let me know how it goes if you do! Thank you again to Blue Kazoo for sponsoring this video 🙌🏻Check out the description for links to get all of their puzzles! 🧩

[@Jinxs-Journey]

I’m working on the sunset beach 3000 piece jigsaw and I’m left now with around 200 pieces that are all blue and black and have green in some too. So far taken me a month to complete but I’ve had some days off in that time, should be finished it soon I hope. Another great video challenge you did. I sure couldn’t cope with doing a jigsaw this way...well done.

[@gaiaattene8604]

Hey, I know it is completely off topic but I really like your hair

[@charismahornum-fries691]

Only that I’ve done upside down once. That was strange.

[@Laurie-nl9oy]

Code word is triangle. I hope that's right

[@epicsash5816]

Well ….. I’m still working on a northern lights puzzle and all the peices look the same

[@annarostagno8599]

KZbinrs out there: "Don't try this at home kids!" Karen being the wonderful human being she is, bringing joy, happiness, and puzzles to our lives: " I hope you are going to try this at home!"

[@SorwestChannel]

Little did we know, the puzzles would rise up against humanity and destroy us all!

[@wolfieisacat13]

Well, to be fair, the youtubers who are like “don’t try this at home kids” aren’t usually solving puzzles 😅

[@Heckpup]

Alright fine, she’s too wholesome, I subbed

[@hh0520]

isn't she great? just a breath of fresh air

[@lesanimaux4416]

When she put those first two yellow pieces together omg the pure happiness

[@sweetp285]

Karen has really brought out a love of puzzling in me that I didn't know was there!

[@filam7371]

Wholesome except for the onlyfans comment she made in another video 🤫🤐

[@LeeDee5]

I’ve already loved puzzles my whole life and then I found this channel where she’s so wholesome to watch… so it’s a win win for me.

[@FluffyLlamacorn]

Oooh, I've actually been considering doing a challenge like this. Instead of buying small trinkets to fill up my advent calendar come Christmas, I'd split the pieces of a 1000 piece puzzle into small piles for each day, which would be around 40 pieces per day. I came up with the idea too late for last year, but I've got a puzzle in mind for trying it this year. It's got fewer triangles than yours, but a lot of stuff happening everywhere and plenty of details to work from. This video definitely makes it seem less scary.

[@GwenM98]

That seems like such a lovely idea!!

[@bettyc.6280]

TRIANGLE This is a very similar challenge to a puzzle that has many similar objects in a puzzle with tons of different colors. Example, all feathers. You will get the same result per section.

[@loveland852]

I’ve seen people do that with Lego kits, filling the compartments with the pieces needed to complete a step or two in the build. However, with the Legos, you are guaranteed to put something together. With the puzzle, I would worry you would be disappointed if you don’t really have any pieces that can go together because of the random draw.

[@TheFactsWin]

I have done this before. They actually sell them in the UK. It's good fun. Well worth trying.

[@tiff2106]

That sounds great!

[@bethgrussakiyama5846]

I've challenged myself to build a puzzle starting from one single piece. Any pieces that I connect have to be built off of that one piece. It's beautiful to see how the puzzle branches out from one piece, and gives me a greater appreciation for smaller details in the puzzle that I had glossed over in past builds. It takes a lot longer to complete and is great for smaller puzzles or ones with an easier image. As a math teacher I love seeing geometric designs in art and puzzles, so this triangle design is one of my favorite puzzles I've seen recently.

[@agatakornacka6108]

Nice idea for a puzzle challenge :-) I have to try it one day ;-)

[@Jason2973_GD]

I have a 500 piece puzzle and what I do to make it more challenging is to start from the part that I normally do last and move backwards and finish up with the edge. It actually took me more than double the time when I do it normally and it is quite challenging!! Love those colorful TRIANGLES especially the red and green ones..

[@analuisa1214]

I do this too!! Weirdly it didn't take me any longer, it was the same time as ever lol but it is a good challenge when our puzzles start to get boring from re-doing them so much! It definitely helps to bring back the magic for that puzzle you don't ever want to see again

[@tonycarpenter8661]

The new hair looks great!!

[@Pupkiwi]

The planet and galaxy puzzles are so nice

[@amandal8601]

So Glad Karen is back!! I have recently become obsessed, I put a video on and just walk in my apartment pretending I can do puzzles

[@kateworkman921]

I'd love to see the time difference between doing a puzzle this way, then doing the same puzzle your normal way, of separating colors, doing the outer pieces first, etc.

[@hopegold883]

I was going to say that too! This was so clever, it just called all sorts of ideas to mind. Also, your hair is beautiful! Very becoming. Also, YES, “we” do love data on Karen Puzzles. There, a triad - if not a triangle - of comments.

[@WishAtElevenEleven]

Just based on how long it takes Karen to complete similar gradient puzzles, I’d say she would normally complete this in 2.5 hrs

[@Daggeira]

"You don't need any special equipment..." You say that like I have a kitchen table or room on the floor lmao

[@danielsimmich1858]

Would love to see you do this again but with a 500 piece puzzle and a 2000 piece puzzle to see how the graphs compare

[@SprongBobbles]

You know you love Karen Puzzles when you’re watching her new video only like 8 minutes after she posted. So much love to you!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Thank you for watching!

[@Mac_an_Mheiriceanaigh]

Karen, I LOVED this one!! I would love to see you do another 100-at-a-time challenge!!!

[@landsgevaer]

Ah, "we love statistics here on KarenPuzzles"; well... In the first group of 100 pieces, there are almost 400 other pieces that could connect to those (ignoring edges). Since 1 in 10 pieces are in the group of 100 out of 1000, you might expect 1/10 x 400 = 40 pieces to be able to connect in that first batch. Now, if one connects to a second, then the second connects to the first, so maybe you would have about 20 pairs on average (crude estimate). You can actually appreciate that at the 900-piece mark (17:11), when the number of paired gaps are precisely the number of connected pieces in that last batch. So I think you missed a few in your first batch where you connected only 2 pairs; no critique, but this might be even more challenging than you think... ;-) PS: nice hair; TRIANGLE.

[@fossilcore]

Those last 100 pieces are so satisfying to watch

[@nadines.1107]

Right??

[@LauritaJuanita]

Watching Karen snap those triangles into place is so satisfying! Then, feeling inspired, I go over to my current puzzle aaaaaaand...*crickets*. 😆

[@tristanmiller7573]

In math there's something called the percolation threshold. Above this threshold, you should theoretically be able to connect one very large group of puzzle pieces. The threshold is 50% for square pieces (it's different for triangles or hexagons), but actually connecting the pieces might be difficult! ETA: I was mistaken, the threshold is around 59%, had to look that up.

[@minosomething6734]

I LOVE HOW U DID UR HAIR

[@Jackisafanofstarwars]

Karen I thought of a metaphor for you: Build your life with things close to you and not things that are still to come! 😊

[@douglasfreer]

Here’s a challenge: blindfolded puzzle. For an extra challenge maybe have it be one where the pieces aren’t unique and can interlock with each other. The image should be wonderfully chaotic.

[@Reggie_la]

SHE WANTS TO FINISH THE PUZZLES COME ON!!

[@randomburntbeans2243]

I once tried to do this with a 50 piece puzzle(it was one for kids) and I had trouble finishing a puzzle that small blindfolded! It was definitely tricky but I’m sure Karen could do it.

[@ohtricaerontops4781]

I appreciate your videos so much! The editing, the commentary, statistics and data. SO GOOD! And that triangle puzzle looks so fun!

[@WolfRose11]

7:40 Cheesy Metaphor: What you are looking for is not always where you currently are. Also, with the amount of time you work on puzzles, how do you not prep a small snack table in reach so you remember to eat something? 😮

[@WolfRose11]

I can't go that long without some Noms if it is brain processing heavy. 🍪☕

[@this_fanny]

This challenge is all about that satisfactory feeling of finding THAT piece missing in a section, but 200 times, and I'm here for it 💛

[@JudithARobinson]

It was so satisfying seeing the puzzle start to pull together around the 700 piece mark. But it was really wierd seeing you do a gradient puzzle this way, as you are normally so organised! The only challenge I ever give myself is, occasionally, not looking at the picture😂 Love this puzzle, by the way, as the triangle is my favourite shape!

[@spellbinder3113]

Honestly, until I started watching your videos I had always had worked my puzzles randomly. It never occurred to me to sort the puzzles prior to building them. That's why I first started being so interested in your channel - just watching you patiently sort the puzzles and then worked certain areas one at a time!

[@LJG7654]

Loved how the puzzle looked around the 13:45 mark! Kind of pixelated. Super satisfying watching the last 100 pieces go in! The triangles of the puzzle really pop out at the end...

[@nibaldoaraneda123]

Once I asked a friend to bring me a puzzle from Japan. I asked her to buy the most difficult image and give me only the bag of pieces, without telling me anything about the puzzle. It took me 3 months to do it and almost a month to understand that was a 5000 pieces puzzle of the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Almost half of the pieces were a marble yellowish grey color and sorting by color wasn't a good strategie cause all the scenes are separates. It was my last puzzle, more than 20 years ago. Thank you for your channel... just seeing it gives me the joy that I felt in the past.

[@Laserstormelpies]

I really love the part from 13:17 - 13:34 This kind of feels like (something where i can speak of experience) doing a sketch and then going back all over it to do the clean-up version, creating a more clean and detailed version of your drawing. (digital, with layers, i guess you get the idea) Very satisfying part of the video.

[@cocosapps]

Wow, I’ve never thought that a video of someone puzzling would be so relaxing! I love how the gradient slowly comes to life ^^

[@kimberlyswanson2782]

I don’t even like puzzles but I can’t stop watching your videos. It’s fun to see someone so excited about them 😄

[@crystal7465]

You should make this a series with ever increasing puzzle sizes, like do a 1500 then a 2000 and so and so forth I think it would be fun to watch

[@kruigi]

Cool challenge! I did a similar thing with three puzzles (puzzle-triangle): I did it with puzzles, where on most of the pieces are clues, where they belong. I did it with those puzzles: A map of my country (1000 pieces) A puzzle with a ton of Harry Potter-characters (1000 pieces) A puzzle with 99 squares with cats (1500 pieces) All puzzles are from ravensburger.

[@saisakethvajrapu2748]

Hey @Karen Puzzles, I don't know if you can but you should totally do the Coffe Table Puzzle by Unnecessary Inventions! It's a coffee table that is build by doing a jigsaw puzzle! I'm sure you (and your channel too) will love it!

[@hannahgreendale3589]

Watching those last 100 pieces go in was so satisfying! I loved watching one Triangle after another take shape. :)

[@KarenHoyt-Bonkahoney3]

Loved this triangle puzzle challenge! I have several puzzles that might work for it.

[@donnapalmer1727]

I am getting back into puzzling after many years and I enjoy your videos!! My hubby can’t believe I watch someone doing puzzles on KZbin but as I said I enjoy your videos!! I will definitely be getting the triangle puzzle from Blue Kazoo!!

[@bethm8593]

The last 200 pieces were so satisfying to watch being placed!!!

[@kelletzapalencia]

Triangle ❤️ Something about your videos makes me very calm. I suffer with heavy anxiety, and watching you makes me feel so much better all the time. And to clarify, I've seen a lot of people on KZbin do puzzles, and I always find yours a lot more soothing and calming. Thank you ❤️

[@maggardyful]

That was really fun to watch! At first a little stressful, just wanting to see the connections. Working a triangle puzzle would be good to do. Your hair looks pretty sweetie! 💕

[@annettem3584]

Excellent work again Karen! Wish I could enter the Blue Kazoo contest, it's not like Canada is in the Bermuda Triangle!

[@jeannietrapnell2226]

Love your hair cut. I enjoy so much watching you work on puzzles. And hearing your strategy. I love doing jigsaw puzzles. Don't think I would do well with this challenge. You did great!

[@SR-ut1vo]

How do KZbinrs do everything in one sitting like this all the time, I could never

[@MarielaDavina]

This was a great idea! All of the Blue Kazoo puzzles featured are beautiful but I’d say that I’m caught in a love triangle between Nebula and Starfield. Your hair looks great! It really frames your face 😊

[@liabunnyears4249]

Fab random shapes towards the end! I think I see an interesting looking triangle shape there too! Interesting challenge!

[@cindyderosier]

That was fun to watch. It basically takes away all the techniques you use to solve puzzles quickly. Triangle!

[@Skittl1321]

Those mini puzzles look great. I love 300-500 for a quick 1 night puzzle. 1000 takes me more time, and then my kids get into it.

[@TheOlgaKayFan]

The last part was so satisfying to watch! Thank you for this amazing video challenge

[@pamelafranzen2771]

Filling Easter Eggs with puzzle pieces would be fun, too. Pick a 100 piece for the littles and put five to ten in each. Put the puzzle together as a family!

[@natehatetrain9284]

I love your videos! I always loved puzzles as a kid and is now getting that vibe back with some common 1000 puzzles, but I’m branching out to do more interesting and bigger puzzles, definitely putting these ones onto my list’

[@robyn7502]

great idea and fun to watch you adjust your strategy to the challenge because you never know if the piece you need is available to you or not. If it wasn't too much to consider doing a challenge like this again, it would be interesting to see you do a similar 100 pieces at a time with a puzzle with an image where you would have a piece with a part of the image and you would be tasked with finding where on the puzzle it goes... food for thought. Great video

[@asuwannabe2015]

15:45 this is honestly my puzzle nightmare and dream at the same time. to be able to hold a piece you know goes somewhere at to watch the puzzle get complete literal piece by piece at the end….so satisfying

[@julieandrews730]

What a fun idea! I can see doing this with a previously solved puzzle so there's some memory involved. Thanks, Karen!

[@skyerae722]

This was a lot of fun to watch, and it was super satisfying to see the puzzle start to come together in the second half.

[@miprichan]

The 70% puzzle is amazing.😍 If the red and purple section would be a little bit further along I would immediately use it as my new desktop wallpaper.

[@kristichiou]

This was so fun to watch!! The fact that you were squishing all the pieces into the taped box made me anxious 😂

[@ktrmeadow]

You’re so talented and entertaining. Bravo on the triangle sponsorship again. Cool puzzles. Also, your haircut is glorious!

[@nicoleh5768]

I didn't do puzzle challenges until I started watching this channel. I think I might give it a go with a 500 piece puzzle and 50 at a time. Loved the 9 progress pictures of the triangle puzzle together. So pretty

[@anjagoller]

Somehow this reminded me of the "train a pokemon to level 100 before the first trainer" kind of challenges. 😁 These galaxy puzzles look awesome. I'm not so much into astronomy, but galaxy pictures are soooo beautiful.

[@chenchasrulz]

I love your content and your new hair :) Being colorblind gradient puzzles make me anxious, but I love watching you put them together. This triangle puzzle was amazing.

[@tinahooper4267]

Triangle! I enjoyed this episode and the analysis at the end. I have a small space myself to work puzzles in and have had to be very creative. I have also purchased a few small wooden puzzles that I loved putting together. Love the hairstyle by the way. Stay safe and happy.

[@RiteofWriters]

Sometimes your day turns out to be a triangle with ‘puzzling,’ ‘eating regularly scheduled meals,’ and ‘having a good day’ at each point. You can choose 2, but you can’t choose all of them lol. Thanks for another great video!

[@mathangelaz5799]

Loved the idea of taping off a perimeter. What do you think of a perimeter larger than the puzzles to accommodate movement of the pieces? Don’t know if it can be done for a circular or triangle shaped one, tho.

[@saraprincess6758]

I really like how much joy you put out into the world with your videos. "Triangle"

[@jimmyzbike]

What an interesting challenge you did on the triangle puzzle. I have never tried a challenge and this one seems quite daunting.

[@colorcodedcody]

Love her hair! She always has good music in her videos but the music in this one was awesome. Love those galaxy puzzles! Oh and Triangle!

[@_lemontea]

You know, this is actually a really good way to show off bluekazoo's puzzles! As i was watching, i was thinking it was nice that the pieces interlocked so well, since you seemed to be moving sections of the puzzle around rather easily. This challenge would be a little more difficult with a less well-made puzzle 😉😉 Also, triangle is a really hard word to use naturally

[@Uniquelyyours1]

Triangle. This was a fun challenge, Karen. Thanks for your efforts to entertain us:)

[@kara8146]

Omg this challenge is so cool! I NEED to try it (Also the hair looks so nice and suits you very well!)

[@ammalyrical5646]

BlueKazoo puzzles are great. I've done the triangles puzzle recently too. It's beautiful

[@tremkl]

I’ve recently discovered your channel and it’s just so wholesome and comforting. I’ve been slowly working my way through your massive backlog and really enjoying it. Something about watching a time lapse turning disorder into order is just a delight. I might have to pick up that nebula puzzle, it’s gorgeous!

[@justinsheppherd1806]

World: We've found all the unusual ways to do a jigsaw! Karen: Hold my beer ;-) Respect for your creativity, Karen! And that Triangle Jigsaw is lovely.

[@amypenn178]

Loved watching you do this one with the triangle colors too! I could never do a puzzle by myself now and this is my way of enjoying a puzzle. Thanks so much!😍

[@clberka]

Haha, I think the phrase we're looking for is, "do the best with what you have!"

[@Dodl1]

Interesting challenge, I Will try that some time - don't have a triangle puzzle yet, but will find one that fits!the earth one looks cool. Also, the hair dresser was totally worth it, you look stunning!

[@erica1800]

yay for a new karen puzzles video! but it amazes me how you come up with these cool challenges!

[@bettyhonold2842]

I’m not ready for a challenge! Triangle puzzles would be fun!

[@wweslytherindiva]

I found your videos last night and am now obsessed

[@maddiegerber8430]

I think it’d be really cool to do a puzzle from the outside in! Complete the edge, then do the puzzle ring by ring until you get to the center! It’d be a really tough challenge but it’s just an idea I had

[@apoptoses_9123]

OMG! Love this idea! I have a gradient puzzle here that I want to do again. Now, I'll do this challenge. The only thing missing are triangles...

[@damalewis9277]

Fun video, and I love that puzzle, with all the pretty triangles. ;) Karen, your hair looks fantastic, and I adore that top. I need to know where I can get one for my daughter!

[@Heather-Luper]

Beautiful puzzle and hair! This was a fun one to watch.

[@ladycallieriddle]

Such a fun challenge! I like how methodical it is, completing triangle by triangle... And your hair looks great! Thanks for bringing us puzzle joy, Karen :)

[@kellym4310]

Interesting challenge on a beautiful puzzle. When doing a puzzle I sometimes randomly pick up handfuls of pieces and the figure out where they go rather than searching a pile for a particular piece. Triangles. Love the new galaxy puzzles and those cute mini puzzles. Love your videos. ❤

[@Scinasari]

Super cool video!! Very satisfying to watch and somehow, this felt the most like the experience of doing a puzzle IRL (maybe because I work a little bit "at random" when I do puzzles). Would love to see another one like this someday :)

[@rosetorres7031]

Nice job with the gradient triangle puzzle Karen 😁👍

[@WeNeverGoOutOfStyle943]

Me: having a bad day Karen: posts a new video Me: having the best 25 minutes of the day:)

[@shadow9570]

This video was amazing omg, great video Karen, the triangle gradient puzzle looks amazing, and the galaxy series looks amazing, btw I hope I win lol

[@nadines.1107]

I finished it by now (triangle and all) and love that you added shots of the stages. That is so fascinating, seeing the development. And of course the final 100 were so satisfyingly filling the gaps...

[@piecefulpuzzle9222]

I love puzzle challenges, whether it's not looking at the picture or box, trying to place one piece in the correct location at a time, like how you did it in this video, or many other ways. You are correct in saying gradient puzzles are easier. I like to do them in-between the difficult ones cause they give me a relaxing effect.

[@a-little-sunshine]

Hi Karen :) I haven't commented in a while, though I've watched every video of yours in the meantime, of course! I just wanted to say thank you for spending your whole day doing this puzzle, filming it, and making the result such enjoyable viewing. Thank you for the time you put into all of your videos! (I also appreciate that you probably put way more time into editing and posting your videos, which always look spectacular.) There was a moment in this one where you seemed the teeniest bit concerned about how long it was taking and I just had to say thank you for keeping at it. This video alone has already kept people entertained, kept them company, or inspired them for... 10,800 hours (the length of the video x the views?) and I'm one of them! It looked so good and so satisfying at the end of the puzzle when those last 100 pieces slotted into place! PS: Your new hair looks lovely! (Triangle)

[@maiballoon]

Triangle! This one was extra satisfying 😍 The challenge seems quite difficult for me, but I might try it just to create that visual and feeling of putting in the final 100 pieces!

[@sunnyscott4876]

Will never do a puzzle in a million years: Watching your channel now.

[@Lindamr71965]

Love the haircut! You always amaze me with your puzzling skills! I have never ever completed a 1000 piece puzzle in one day! You do it in 6 hours, even with adding difficulty to it! Dang! But I love watching your videos, and doing puzzles myself, I just know I'll never be as good as you are!

[@Lindamr71965]

Oh, I forgot....triangle!

[@susanrobeno6739]

I have a hard enough time doing puzzles the ‘regular’ ray do I would probably never do this challenge. However, I love the triangles and colors on this puzzle.

[@jenniferk4336]

Oh Karen, you're a trooper for finishing this challenge. It looked like puzzle torture until about 800 pieces. Your hair looks super cute!

[@sxilormxrs]

This is such a fun challenge! I think I'll do this when I start a new puzzle once I'm done with my 2000 piece one 🥲

[@dorachavez1886]

Love your hair and I loved this challenge. I am definitely going to try to win the set of puzzles from blue Kazoo. The TRIANGLE gradient puzzle 🧩 looks amazing 🤩.

[@srshama]

TRIANGLE! Wow, Karen. That cut and color looks fantastic on you girl! Glad to see the start of post-covid life is treating you well. Great video as always, thanks for the fun content to watch :D

[@adam-l74]

Yay I love this challenge idea. And the haircut looks amazing!
