Back at Camp Zentangle, Rick and Maria have been busy creating this fabulous new tangle, and they are demonstrating the tangle in a great new YouTube video. They challenged us to: (1) name the new tangle, and (2) deconstruct it and write the step-out instructions. The Diva has more information about Auraknot on her award-winning website.
This is definitely a fun tangle with lots of possibilities and variations. But it does require a good amount of focus and consistency..... with regards to direction when rotating the tile. But, somehow, the result is an intricate, complicated-looking design that sorta resembles a Celtic knot.
Thank you Rick and Maria... and Molly and Sue & Nancy.
Happy tangling.....
... and thanks for visiting.
ps: this entry is a dedicated to and a celebration of two birthdays that need to be acknowledged, as they happened since my last post... Happy Birthday, Susan ~ Happy Birthday, Christopher... love you very much.
