CZT® Sandy Hunter has come up with another sweet tangle pattern with a fun name, Cruffle.
She shares a lot of fun ways you can use it, from free form to a grid. Since I’ve featured a few grid tangles recently I chose one of Sandy’s other configurations to use for my example.
Sandy illustrates the step-by-step instructions for drawing Cruffle here on her blog.
Update 03/03/2017: Heads up, y’all. Sandy has just added a new post, “150 new ways to draw Cruffle” on her blog. Be sure to check it out!!

Hi ,
I just wanted to let everyone know that Tangling is a wonderful in so many ways. I haven’t done much in the last few months due to family medical situation. I look forward to Tangling again next month on a regular basis.
It always keeps me calm. It has seen me through several crisis since 2014!
Happy Spring for those of you who live east and north, midwest in US or Canada!:)
