'Tis the Christmas season and in the midst of these happy (and busy) days this "String Thing" is purposefully simple.
I begin with a confession - I worked a bit backwards this week. I first chose a tangle pattern, and then a string. As it turns out, I am using my own string this week because it suits the tangle that I have in mind for Christmastime - Verdigogh.
Verdigogh is one of those wonderful official Zentangle® patterns that at first blush appears complicated, but after just a bit of practice, unfolds easily and elegantly.
You can find Maria Thomas' step out and variations for Verdigogh here on the Zentangle blog.
We begin with String 062 by yours truly via Linda Farmer:

If this is your first visit, welcome! If you are new to Zentangle®, welcome!
This exercise is for beginner and seasoned tanglers alike. Use it as an excuse to keep up with your art work, take time for yourself, learn new patterns, share your talent...
