Friday Puzzles #86

A yajilin puzzle this week, dearest reader. Although this is only another little ‘un this week, I am beginning to convince myself it’s harder to squeeze out elegant yajilin in small sizes than it is for larger sizes.

Incidentally, this might have been a candidate for my alternative yajilin presentation (see here and here ) – my first draft has only six non-redundant numbers – although the positioning of each of the clues is actually quite crucial. Still, I like the whole 0/1/2/3 thing I managed to get out of it, so this time it stays in classic yajilin format. Enjoy!

#112 Yajilin – rated medium
