This lovely tangle pattern is from Australian Zentangle® Zealot (and now CZT®), Michele Beauchamp (aka Shelly Beauch on flickr).
Wist is a great pattern to start off the new year and its inspiration came from the spectacular Wisteria cascades growing over Michele’s front entry a couple of months ago.
Michele has posted a photo of her pattern inspiration along with her illustration of how to draw Wist, here. She has a wonderful Zentangle with Wist and a couple of variations here. Wist can be a filler, and it’s also great used along a string as a border.
One of the reasons I wanted to start the year with this particular pattern is that Michele has written a wonderful poem, Today, (I’ve written about it before) that is a perfect inspiration for the start of 2011. Be sure to read Today here on her blog.

Thanks Linda for posting Wist. You are so lovely to think of my poem to begin the year. I hope 2011 will be full of wonderful surprises for you and all our Tangling friends.
This is a lovely pattern! I followed the link and there are no instructions for drawing it. When I click on the picture, the photo of wisteria just comes up.
Hi Andrea, thanks for alerting me. Michele has fixed the issue and the instructions are back now.
