The Pocket Booklet! / Livreto de bolso

Today I decided to transform The Great Mosaic of Tangle Patterns into something more portable, so I can have it always around even thought I´m away from my computer. I created this little booklet with all the 162 tangles that are in this moment in the Mosaic. My idea is to add more and more pages as I learn and draw more tangle patterns. I have just to attach the extra pages in the last page and keep doing this as my collection grows. I feel like a child collecting stamps!!!
As you can see in the video below the booklet can be opened in a long string so I can take a look at all tangles in the same time and compare them. I´m so excited with the result that I decide to share it here.


What do you think about it?
 Do you have other cool ideal to bring your tangles with you?

  1. I'd love to see the video, but for some reason it's blocked. I love the idea, though. I'm still working out a good way to carry my pattern booklet. I'm thinking of getting a moleskine or something and drawing inchies of the patterns. I love the mosaic, it is so handy.

  9. I would love to make my own booklet too, I will wait for the tutorial so I don't mess it up. I have a fun way of storing my patterns that doesn't really save space but is fun and allows my daughter to help me. I call it the "bucket-o-tangles" where I cut each square of pattern into individuals and place in a bucket. If I get blocked or if my daughter wants to help me, we just draw a pattern from the bucket and use it.
