This week’s It’s A String Thing challenge is to use string 103 by Grace McIntyre from TanglePatterns, and to incorporate tangles Meer, Mi2, and Mr. E.

This challenge proved to be difficult for me. I simply could not figure out how to fit the designated tangles within the curving, spiraling string. Eventually I chose to modify the string a good bit in order to fit in the patterns. I suspect that once the results are posted on Monday I’ll realize that there were all sorts of ways to follow the string that I didn’t see. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20. Anyhow I learned two new tangles this week, and had fun with this tile.
