Random string, random and selected tangles.

Generating random tangles is kind of like opening a box of chocolates…

After drawing the string, which I liked, it was time to select random tangles. I knew where to put Claws right away. I also decided to split the V’s to add a little more texture and interest to them.

Next came Sproing. Again, not a problem. I thought it would look fine in that weird, narrow space.

Molygon? Hmmm. Wait, I could put it in the center of the Claws. But I would have to draw really tiny.

The next two tangles were Florez, which looks like a flower in a square and Phicops. I decided not to use them.

I decided I wanted to put Purk in the left section, but at the last minute, I drew the lines going from the upper left to the lower right. My initial thought was to put them in a more expected position, horizontally. But I like this better!

Finally, I wanted a nice grid tangle for the remaining space in the lower right. Florz. It always works and comes out nice!

It’s so good to be back to tangling. I have been working on learning some new tangles whenever I had a few minutes, but we have been so busy because of holidays and kid stuff, it’s been kind of crazy here!

I have 2 weeks until school goes on break. I hope to get more done!
