KRLI-Q tangle instructions

(It's pronounced "curlicue". Just sayin'.)

This is something I occasionally add as a little extra flourish. I think it's rather elegant and pretty. As I was drawing the instructions it occurred to me to try it in multiple in a section of a Zentangle.



I tried filling a tile section with several of them and I think it worked quite well:

Tangles: Beadlines, Combs variation, Crescent Moon,
Hollibaugh, Krli-q, 'Nzeppel, Ogen, Unyun

Here's what I've done with Krli-qs before now.

This is a very early tile!
Tangles: Chartz (sort of), Flux, Krli-q, Msst, Munchin

  7. While reading your profile, I wanted to say I'm kindred hearted.
    Art also FILLS me with the Spirit & an all over sense of well being.
    I believe we were created by a CREATOR to create!
    By doing what we were created for, we are in the spirit & flowing in love & Divine inspiration. I find it absolutely mind boggling that there seems to be an an endless supply of ideas, new songs, new art, new inventions, new, new, new.
