Helix is an easy tangle from CZT Suzanne McNeill’s Zentangle 6 (Zentangle-inspired Stencils and Cards) booklet. Suzanne has a whole series of booklets exploring various types of Zentangle-inspired crafts.
Not only is Helix a very simple tangle to use in a Zentangle® tile but it could also be adapted imaginatively with color for festive holiday cards and paper crafts.
Suzanne illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing Helix here on her blog and shows several ways to vary this tangle. The page also includes this video of Suzanne creating holiday trees from purchased craft wood tree shapes and decorated with tangles from her Zentangle 9 (Color with Mixed Media) booklet.
