0004416: Mood requires yarn cloth, but sheep do not exist
This happened in a world that was gened in 31.18, so sheep do not exist and yarn cannot be made (and as far as I can tell cannot be traded for). Despite this, moody dwarfs will still ask for yarn cloth. I've had it happen twice.
Make a world in 0.31.18 and move it over to 0.31.25. Wait for a mood that requires yarn cloth.

Probably would also happen in pure 0.31.25 worlds if you had a mod with no sheep.
No tags attached.

If anyone else has this problem, I found a rather simple workaround. Put the [YARN] tag under [MATERIAL_TEMPLATE:THREAD_PLANT_TEMPLATE] in material_template_default.txt. Plant fiber cloth (and I assume plant fiber thread, have not tested) can now be used in the place of yarn.

this is also more or less expected, as most game changes affect older worlds more or less
