Inktober Tangles - Day 08 - Chomborós by Tania Ferriol Jover
Chomborós is a tangle that produces a beautiful, bordered, 6-pointed star. It is important to follow the Step-Out carefully for the best results.
For my version, above, I treated the outside border as if it was a folded ribbon, with a decorative side, using Tripoli for the design. On the plain side, I used vertical lines to show the wrong side of the ribbon.
I added some decorative, aura lines to the inside of the star points along with a decorative vertical line for interest.
I was nervious about what to do with this tangle, since I had never done it before. Prior to starting my tile, I drew it over and over until I felt I understood how the lines work out.
On my tile, there was no string, I just marked the center of the tile and crossed my fingers hoping it would come out straight. I think it worked out very nicely!
I really like my finished tile, and I might use this design for a Christmas project!
