Dear Tanglers!

For the fourth time I’d like to welcome you to the Pattern Mixer! And I’d also like to point your attention to the rules, so:

ATTENTION, please! While all tiles submitted last month were stunningly beautiful, there seems to have been some confusion about pattern mixing. This might be because I forgot to add the rules in English! Ouch! 😉

Just drawing two patterns next to each other on a tile is called a Duo Tangle (and it can definitely be worth your while), but when we mix patterns, we go one step further. Pattern mixing means to merge two tangles, to intertwine them or even create a new tangle from the combination. I’ve drawn up a few examples for you here. Mixing patterns is not easy and you might even want to collect a few ideas or do a few sketches first. But it’s a real booster to yor creativity and it’s – well, a challenge!

So let’s see what you come up with! I’ve picked two of my favorite tangles this months. Go tangle!
