Ribbon tangles! And ‘Nzeppel as a ribbon, continuing an ongoing theme.
This style of tangle can be used as a frame or border. They can appear between other tangles to separate them from each other, or used as an accent to fill in behind focal points.
Sometimes, you might see them in the bands of Hollibaugh.
There are Ribbon tangles that everyone is familiar with, like Archer, Worms or Dragonair. You can also use a single row of a grid tangle. Or you can choose your own adventure, adding a botanical or other style of tangle and placing it in a ribbon, as I did with Pokeroot and ‘Nzeppel here!
This was fun to do, and I will probably do more of these to build an index of ribbon tangles for future use.
