    Looking for a different day?

    A new NYT Strands puzzle appears at midnight each day for your time zone – which means that some people are always playing ‘today’s game’ while others are playing ‘yesterday’s’. If you’re looking for Saturday’s puzzle instead then click here: NYT Strands hints and answers for Saturday, July 12 (game #496).

    Strands is the NYT’s latest word game after the likes of Wordle, Spelling Bee and Connections – and it’s great fun. It can be difficult, though, so read on for my Strands hints.

    • COTTON
    • RAYON
    • POLYESTER
    • SPANGRAM: TEXTILES

    • My score: 3 hints

    A real muddle through Strands for me today, with three hints needed to get things done and a head scratcher at the end before I finally saw that the word we were looking for was POLYESTER.

    Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.

    I really wasn’t on my game today. I even connected the letters of non-game word woollen and completely missed WOOL – feeling like a right fool when the hint gave me exactly that.

    I guess if you get the puzzle done it’s all immaterial. I hope you found it easier.

    How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

    Johnny is a freelance pop culture journalist who has been writing about the internet, music, football and famous people since the iPhone was just a twinkle in Steve Jobs’ eye. Previously known by the pseudonym the Pop Detective, his journalistic career began making up stories about Madonna’s addiction to sausage rolls (this is not true by the way). A man of few talents, his career is rich and various and includes the highs of interviewing Elton John and Blur; and the lows of interviewing Right Said Fred, appearing on a Channel 5 documentary about Peter Kay, and fact-checking the instruction manual for a German cooker. Somehow still affording to live in North London he is at his happiest riding his bicycle and shouting at pigeons.
