Outlines to Copy. Outlines to Copy I am posting outlines that you can add doodle patterns too, and you are free to use however you wish. I will post a new one or maybe two each week for you to use. I have added a Mr Linky so that those who want to, can post their results. I would love to see them as I am sure others would also. Suggested Variations to these designs. 1. 2.

New tangle or tangleation? What do you think.....is this a new tangle or a tangleation of keeko? It starts with keeko but reminds me of the knots in macramé. Years ago I loved making macramé pot plant hangers and wall hangings so I thought a good name might be mak-rah-mee (the pronunciation from the dictionary). You can just do one knot or add as many as you like in lines or random over your tile. Loop, tie, weave and tangle. A fun way to get yourself in a knot! TANGLES and STUFF. PARADOX, and then some. Here are Zentangle's instructions for the tangle Paradox, from the February 2008 newsletter.

Paradox is one of my favorite tangles and I seem to do it rather well. Perhaps those two things are related! :-) I've been asked about it occasionally, how did I do this or that. I thought about doing a video but that's just a bit more than I can take on right now. So I decided to post some tips and ideas here, and hope to make them clear enough. The elegant curves show best if the lines are close together. Agh! Then again, never say never. Paradox works best in triangles or squares. There are two looks that can be achieved with Paradox. Paradox is essentially a square or triangular spiral. TWISTS: Regardless of whether you spiral clockwise or counter-clockwise, if you spiral in the same direction in every section you'll end up with twists.

FANS: To get the fans you need to spiral in the opposite direction from section to section. Paradox also makes a nice border design. Never say never, right? TanglePatterns.com.
