Here's how to do Yabbut. In step 5, note that the small black squares co-ordinate with the black triangular areas already created; they make the third point of the triangle.
There's a tile that uses Yabbut in my 'Walking the Line' post here. Here's another example:

Very nice! And a snappy title - it reminds of the old Abbot and Costello movies.
ReplyDeleteI'll be looking forward to trying this one.

Love it! TY
ReplyDeleteOh, I like it! And love the little whiskers that pop-out from intersections around the margin of your string (on your demo tile)!
ReplyDeleteSuper tangle. Bet Gennvieve will love it too.
ReplyDeleteI love this tangle, and the name really suits it! I tried it with a mix of diamonds and circles - really fun. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tangle - thx for sharing it with us! I had an amazing Biology teacher in high school that would tease us... "Yabbut?! Is that like a rabbit?" And you NEVER said "I don't know," to a question, or he'd promptly pull up a chair and begin mercilessly grilling you! Good times =^)
ReplyDeleteMy (now deceased) Dad had a brain tumor removed, when he was in 70s. It caused a lot of damage to his brain, including his ability to speak. He knew what he wanted to say, but the words just wouldn't come out. (He couldn't write anymore, either.) He would become so frustrated, and - literally - all he could say was: "Yeah, but..." Over and over. When I see that phrase, as in the title for your zentangle (on Pinterest) I like to think he's thinking about me. Once, as I was driving somewhere and in a bit of an anxious frame of mind for some reason, a sports car passed me and the license plate said - "YEAH BUT". It made me smile. He loved sports cars, but never indulged in anything so frivolous. Hopefully he acquired one in the next chapter of his life. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteSorry to be so long replying to your comment. Life has been rather intense lately and I'm not as on top of things as I would like. 🙄
DeleteMy mother-in-law was similar; the words just refused to go from her brain to her mouth. She would read signs as we were out for a drive, I think letting herself and us know that she was still cognizant.
