Here is an example with CW complexes rather than simplicial complexes.  I doubt that there is an important difference, although the simplicial case will require more bookkeeping.

Take $K=\mathbb{R}P^3$ and $Y=\mathbb{R}P^2$.  We can give $K$ a CW structure with skeleta $\mathbb{R}P^k$ for $0\leq k\leq 3$.  Let $f^1:\mathbb{R}P^1\to Y$ be the evident inclusion.  Clearly this extends over $K^2$.  Now suppose we have an extension $f^3:K^3=K\to Y$ of $f^1$.   This will then give a graded ring homomorphism $(f^3)^*:H^*(Y;\mathbb{Z}/2)\to H^*(K;\mathbb{Z}/2)$, or in other words $(f^3)^*:(\mathbb{Z}/2)[y]/y^3\to (\mathbb{Z}/2)[x]/x^4$.  Because $f^3$ extends $f^1$ we must have $(f^3)^*(y)=x$.  This gives a contradiction because $y^3=0$ but $x^3\neq 0$.
