A new 3D‐printing strategy is reported by Xuanhe Zhao and Hyunwoo Yuk in article number 1704028 by harnessing deformation, instability, and fracture of viscoelastic inks. The new strategy allows single‐nozzle printing of various fiber diameters and patterns for viscoelastic inks. Furthermore, selection parameters for the new 3D‐printing strategy can be rationally guided by a quantitative phase diagram.
