"It's a String Thing" #268

It's Tuesday, your good news day!

The results of IAST #267 will be posted later this week - after I catch my breath from the adventure and great fun of zenAgain.

In the meantime, let's continue along the theme of using simple strings and early tangles.
Here is this week's string ~

IAST #268 String by Adele Bruno, CZT


Feel free to rotate and/or divide the string spaces into smaller sections - or just tangle with it as is.


The tangle we will use is Paradox by Rick Roberts.  I think it will be wonderfully relaxing to revisit this classic tangle and devote an entire tile to it.

Rick and Maria first wrote about Paradox in their newsletter in February of 2008.  That is going back quite a bit!  Since then, much more has been published about it.

Here are just a few of the links:

and one of my Tips for Tangling


More information can be found on Tangle List and TanglePatterns as well.

Keep in mind that strings are merely suggestions. As with all IAST adventures, simply pencil in the string and let the tangles lead the way. 

Here are the (Not so) Official Guidelines:
* Challenges are posted on Tuesdays.
*Use the string posted for the week and some or all of the suggested patterns
* Submit a photo of your tile saved as jpg or scan your tile (300 dpi or higher) and save as a jpg
*Email your jpg file as an attachment to - brunoadelem@gmail.com
*Entries for IAST are to be submitted by Saturday evening of the week issued
*Photos, notes, and the 'Tile for Honors' are (usually) posted on the following Monday 


Send in your photos - you will encourage and inspire fellow Zentangle® enthusiasts all over the world. WHEN YOU SIGN YOUR NAME, PLEASE INCLUDE WHERE YOU LIVE.
FOR EXAMPLE: ADELE BRUNO (FLORIDA)

PLEASE NOTE: It is not necessary for you to have a blog or website to participate.

If you do have a blog or website, I will add a link upon request.
Please include the site specific URL.

I look forward to your emails.

This will be a relaxing tangling time.  Enjoy!
