Bale me out!


After I had finished the first Bales challenge I was thinking about other ways I could do it. When I thought about spirals I knew I just couldn't go to sleep until it was done. So this one went very quickly. And, I got a decent nights sleep too!

I used my pencil to draw a spiral string in first. I then came up with some grid lines that fanned out from the middle. From there the bales pattern was easy to just fill in. Tangleations came next - and they were fun too! Shading of course, makes everything pop.

I realized after I was done that the way I had done this spiral grid could be used for almost any tangle that is based off a grid pattern. Coool!

    Great spiral design. Clean, crisp tangle lines. And very clever title for this post!
