From hate to love!?

A monotangle: I like that, but ...... ohhhhhh it's Tripoli the tangle I never use because I can't do it.
"Skip the challenge this week", was my first thought when I read it.
But, I knew right away that I couldn't do that, that I had to try once more.
And so I started and ..... no idea why, but I was (am) able to draw Tripoli. YES, I did it!!!

I'm sure I will use it more now and I'm soooo grateful to Laura for making me step out of my comfort zone.
This tile is nothing very special, but for me: A great start of the week!!!!!



Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you leave me a comment. Work created by fellow tanglers can be seen at 'I am the diva'.

Blessed Be!!!

  1. Bij mij was het net zo, ik had er echt een hekel aan toen ik hem voor 't eerst tekende, maar eens je "hem" beet hebt is het een erg mooie tangle waarmee je veel mogelijkheden hebt.Ik vind de verschillende variaties erg geslaagd en het is een leuke compositie.

  3. Ik denk dat het bij iedereen zo gaat, maar als je hem door hebt is het zo'n heerlijke tangle.
    Volgens mij heb je hem nu voorgoed in de vingers.
    En dat is goed te zien in deze geweldige tile😊

  4. This is terrific and I'm happy you didn't skip the challenge! Tripoli is a challenge for me too, and I'm happy when I push through it (like in this challenge) and things work out… it's one of those tangles that makes me "embrace the imperfections". You've done beautiful line work here!
