Daily Zen: 2017091801

In-between.

It’s what lies between that makes the difference.

This is actually a Monotangle, meaning only one tangle pattern was used on the entire tile. I normally post Monotangles on Mondays, but I had something special to post yesterday, so this is being posted on Tuesday, instead.

I chose African Artist because it is a pattern that has been difficult for me to execute. For one thing, sometimes I get the little portions going in the wrong direction. And drawing an ogee grid, which this is based on, I find very difficult for some reason!

That being said, I am happy with this tile. It was fun to experiment with the different ideas for those in-between bits!
