Ah, those typos, glitches, and flat-out-WTF moments... The Tangle Library App was doing so well - and the brand new in-app purchase of 40 more tangles - that was fabulous. BUT - a few glitches were found: some messed up step-outs in a few patterns. Nothing life threatening for sure. And rest assured, they are fixed and resubmitted to Apple for approval. Unfortunately, Apple takes about a week to give approval. When Apple accepts the fixed version, you can "update" and everything will be AWESOME (sorry, just saw The Lego Movie, and that song is stuck in my head!!) But one tangle, Bannah, was missing the step-outs completely. So I am posting them here. BANNAH by Sandy Steen Bartholomew BANNAH by Sandy Steen Bartholomew If you are OCD like me and can't stand not having the steps in your App, you can use the camera in Tangle Library to take a shot of these steps I've posted here and "Tag" them with the tangle name "Bannah". Then when you click on the main Bannah image, you will have the step outs in the photo section. I am not at all sure I explained that well... if anyone understands it, maybe you can rephrase it? And some answers to a few other questions we've been getting: • To buy the Tangle Library App, go to the Apple App store, either on your device or in iTunes. • Do a Search for "Tangle Library" and buy the App. • If the App is not called "Tangle Library," then it is a different App. Not mine. (Please do not hold us responsible for someone else's app!) • To buy the Totally Tangled, 2nd set of 40 tangles... that is an "In-App Purchase"... you buy that from inside the Tangle Library App. • Be sure your App has been updated to the latest version first. There should be a little tag icon at the bottom of the App. Clicking on that shows you whatever new packs of tangles are available for purchase. Click and enter your Apple info to buy. • Repeat the process on any other Apple devices you own - except, on the purchase page, click on "Restore Previous Purchases". And you won't be charged each time. • No Android plans at this moment. (The explanation is in the previous post). • If you think the price is too much, be sure to LIKE the Tangle Library Facebook Page so you will know when there is a "Special" on the App. Also, you will know when new packs come out. • If you are NOT techie at all - fantastic! The tangles are all available as REAL cards that you can hold in your hand and sort out all over your desk... each pack has a cool nine piece puzzle and an index card as well as helpful tips. You can get them in my shops on Etsy and Wazala. If you are interested in getting them at Wholesale, you'll want to go to my Wazala shop or contact Design Originals (if you want a lot of them or the cool display). I think that covers it, for now. :-)

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. TIPS! TIP #1: The elegant curves show best if the lines are close together. See the difference. TIP #2: Agh! But what if you accidentally leave too much space between some lines? Simple! Just add a line or two between the ones that are too spacey, like this: Then again, never say never. I tried deliberately leaving wide spaces that I then filled with other tangles. You can see the results here. TIP #3: Paradox works best in triangles or squares. It's not bad in a pentagon but gets worse and worse as there are more and more sides. For one thing, the center deteriorates quickly as you move in. Besides, drawing a fairly regular shape with more than four sides, freehand, is quite a challenge. Stick with squares and triangles. TIP #4: There are two looks that can be achieved with Paradox. In my classes I call them "Fans" and "Twists". Here they are: Paradox is essentially a square or triangular spiral. These two effects are obtained depending on which direction you send your spirals. 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. Starting with squares Starting with triangles If you prefer to be less technical and more intuitive, you can look at what's happening in the section adjacent to the one you want to work in, and note where the lines need to converge and where they need to splay out. TIP #5: Munchin is a tangle that flows particularly nicely placed next to Paradox. Others that could work well this way are Tri-po, Facets, possibly Hibred (scroll down the link). I can also see possibilities for Tripoli (another of my favorite tangles) and Betweed. This is a rectangle divided in three. The red arrows show where the divisions are. AND THEN SOME! THEN SOME #1: Paradox also makes a nice border design. Start with a row of squares or triangles, then decide whether you want fans or twists. THEN SOME #2: An interesting variation is to fill in every other stripe. Don't do this going around the spiral the way you did the tangle. It's too easy to get confused that way. Begin on one side and fill in to the center, then move on to another side. THEN SOME #3: The triangles or squares you use don't all have to meet neatly at the corners. Interesting things happen when they're placed randomly. You can also use a mix of triangles and squares. THEN SOME #4: Sometimes when I'm doing Paradox using squares there's an odd-shaped section, like a trapezoid. (What a great word!) I've found a few ways of dealing with this challenge. One thing you can do is separate that end bit and deal with it on its own. This leaves a triangle and you can fill it in a number of ways: 1) fill the triangle with Paradox with a twist effect 2) fill the triangle with Paradox with a fan effect 3) fill the triangle Munchin style to extend the fan 4) fill the triangle Munchin style in the other direction Another option is to fill the odd shape entirely with Paradox, adding an extra line or two occasionally as you're spiralling around. You need to think about the direction of the spiral in order for the extra lines to fill the proper space. The aim is to get the (temporarily) empty center area looking more like a regular square. THEN SOME #5: Never say never, right? While the classic Paradox is done entirely with straight lines - thus the paradox - it can also be done using curved lines. It takes a little more concentration. THEN SOME #6: If you're feeling confident, here's something to try: partial Paradox! This requires imagining what's not there, but (of course) it doesn't have to be exact or perfect. Here you can see: 1st: a string 2nd: other tangles (Crescent Moon, Florez, Keenees, Prestwood, Tripo), with two sections left blank. The solid green line makes a nice square in the section where I want to put Paradox. Normally I'd draw it in black. Then there's a dotted green line where I need to imagine the far edge of the other Paradox square. 3rd: one and a half Paradoxes and the final section filled with Gingham THEN SOME #7: Paradox in a paradox. See the Paradox section in the lower left of the tile below? Going from the point in the center, there's a Paradox triangle, a Paradox square, and a partial Paradox. In the square section I did Paradox until about halfway in, then, I reversed direction! Cool! Other tangles here: Moving Day, Ninja Stars, Screen - all mine! FINALLY Here's a pencil string, some notes about what I did, and the Paradox result: There are more examples of Paradox in other Zentangle newsletters here (scroll down) and here (scroll down). I was about to throw out all the examples I did for this post when I thought, "Hmm. Let's stick 'em all together and see what happens." So here it is, the all-in-one (minus one) Paradox visual tutorial! HAVE FUN! (and congratulations to anyone who stuck through it to the end!) THIS JUST IN! August 2011: For another take on Paradox, using a two-sided shape (how cool is that!) see the Zentangle blog post for August 26. June 2012: for a cool variation that I call feathered Paradox see my blog post of June 22, 2012 August 2018: See Rick Roberts' post "Paradox Metaphors" here. April 2020: Another variation, Crazy Paradox, here on my blog.

Cubine is one of many 'official' Zentangle patterns. Maria Thomas' drawing steps for Cubine are here, as well as a photo of the inlaid wood that inspired it. SHADING With most tangles you can be rather easy-going with the shading, but there are a few where you want to stay in the lines. Cubine is one of those. Take care shading. And then some #1 - SCALE I generally make the small black square about one quarter of the original large square. One of the simplest ways to vary the look of Cubine is to change the size of the small square, the black 'hole'. You can see the difference below: medium holes, small holes, and large holes. If you use large black squares you can create 'windows on the stars' by leaving some tiny white circles. Try very gradually changing the amount of space given to the black squares and you have a gradation. It almost looks as if you're moving past it. See the tile at the top of this post for another example. And then some #2 - ANGLES Try drawing your grid so that one set of lines is closer together at one end than at the other, and the pattern seems to be nearer and farther. And then some #3 - ADD A FRONT Something I really like to do with Cubine is to add an extra corner. It gives the whole pattern a 'front'. Simply add a corner before continuing with Cubine as usual. Below it is a tile where I've used this idea a couple of times. Cubine monotangle, some with added 'fronts'. You can achieve an uninterrupted front by starting with a series of squares, instead of a square grid with added extra corners. And then some #4 - CURVY LINES As with almost any square grid pattern, you can use curvy lines rather than straight ones. You can do straight diagonal lines in each square, but I prefer to curve the diagonal line a little according to the shape of the square. In this case, know that the diagonal lines will not be straight lines through all the squares. On occasion they may be almost frighteningly angled! Here's a curvy square grid, the same grid with diagonal lines, and finished with Cubine. And then some #5 - ALIGNMENT One thing I've discovered with Cubine to make it look "right", especially if using curvy lines, is to make the sides of the black square line up with the sides of the larger, original square. The small black square should have almost the same shape as the larger square. Here's the image above with (messy) red lines to show how the edges of the black squares follow the curves of the original curvy grid lines. On the other hand (no mistakes, right?) you could do a right angle (90 degree) corner on the black square and achieve a slightly wonky looking Cubine - also cool. Cubine with added 'fronts', with curvy lines, and windows on the stars, plus a free-floating Cubine: a hole through the white space - what fun! And then some #6 - IN A CIRCLE Cubine can be done in a circle. I've added a 'front' to these, but you wouldn't need to. The template for this design is CZT Erin Olson's Zendala Dare #31, which you can find here. And then some #7 - TRIANGLES Cubine can also be done in triangles, although it's hardly CUBE-ine at that point, is it? Here it is in a sort of Tripoli-style arrangement. Tripoli begins with a series of (more-or-less) equilateral triangles. This is a similar process to the 'uninterupted front' using squares, shown above in #3. The trick is to keep the 'holes' on the same side of each triangle; takes a little bit of thinking. To achieve the look above, notice that there are only two 'fills' for the triangles. Simply alternate a triangle with one white band, and a triangle with two white bands, keeping the small black triangle on the same side of the larger triangle. Then I shade one whole white side of the triangles with two white bands, and only half the white side in the triangles with one white band. With any luck, this picture is clearer than 1000 words. :) Finally, a give-away! I'm giving away the four square tiles shown in this post. I'm also going to abandon my salad bowl and bits of paper in favor of digital technology, and use Rafflecopter for this process (*gasp*). Ta-da! I'm growing up! :) There will be four winners, each of whom will win one of the four tiles featuring Cubine. The contest runs from midnight January 1 until midnight January 8. For those like me who are occasionally confused by such things, this means that anytime on January 8 is too late. The contest runs from January 1-7 inclusive. There are two ways to enter: 1) Leave a comment on this blog post. 2) Tell me 1-3 other tangles that you'd like to see a similar post about. You can see my "and then some" tutorials on other tangles here: Paradox, Knightsbridge, Cadent, and Munchin, so don't include those. ;) I think this means that if you do both options you get two entries. No guarantees. Good luck! a Rafflecopter giveaway

Zentangle, Pattern, Tangle, Pearly
I’ve been collecting patterns that inspire me in an Evernote notebook for over a year now thinking that some of them would make phenomenal tangle patterns. I see new patterns every day and think, “I should really give this a shot” and then talk myself out of it. Call it lack of confidence, fear of …

Cruising the Internet recently I found an interesting design by Julianna Künstler. She teaches an optical design class and shows this pattern in colored pencil. See instructions on her website here. In ink, and in black and white, it makes a really interesting tangle. Something needs to be done in the 'pointy oval' sections that pass through the entire pattern; I chose circles with Black Pearlz. Maybe I was channeling Inapod. :) You could try something else. I don't think it's stealing, rather adapting. 'Künstler' in German means 'artist' in English. How 'bout that? I'd like to name this design Künstler. Tangles: Beadlines, Künstler, Posh, Providence The piece above was done on a pre-strung Zendala tile from Zentangle. Posh didn't look as good with Künstler as I had hoped; I wanted a wobbly 'ribbon' to pass through all around. I remembered the Red Thread Challenge from a while ago, and thought perhaps I could do red 'beads'. It's not too bad. And here's a bookmark with Künstler in one section.
