Versa is a tangle pattern created by Saskatoon (western Canada) CZT® Laura Harms. As many of you know, Laura is the “instigator” of the weekly Diva Challenge.
As you will see when you check out Laura’s instructions, Versa is a very versatile tangle pattern with lots of opportunities for variation. Here I added some solid areas for the fun of it.
As Laura writes, “If you do it like this it looks like checkerplate… if you do it like this it looks like butterflies and bows! If you do it like this it looks like cross stitch… this tangle is so Versatile!”
Laura illustrates the steps for drawing her tangle Versa and several variations here. Update July 2022: Laura’s blog seems to have gone missing and until she has it restored, here for your convenience are her steps for tangling Versa.

Hi Laura,
Margaret Bremner told me to ask you how you are doing the wood project you are working on as I want to do a cigar box and wasn’t sure what paint or other medium to use to cover it up. Going to use the Identi-pen on my project. Would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you.
