On this second day Alphie, Nomi, Harold, Marasu, and Zander discover there is something NEW in the Project Pack materials!
Harold says, "Hark! This is a new member of the Zentangle tile family."
Nomi adds, "How wonderful! A brand-new size tile, I wonder what it is called?"
Alphie turns the tile over and shares with his friends, "It seems these new tiles are called 5 x Phive Zentangle tiles."
"I love the size and the tendrillar pre-strung designs! I also notice the backs of the tiles offer a tangle-able template. I can already imagine the spiraling possibilities", whispers Nomi in a dreamlike state.
"I heard that this tile, with a quintette of phi spirals, is the one that Molly and Martha are using today. This is going to be 5 times the phun!" Alphie exclaims.

Welcome to Zentangle Project Pack No. 22 and the second day of the 2023 Twelve Days of Zentangle!
As so many of you tangle enthusiasts know ... The Zentangle Method is an easy-to-learn, relaxing, and fun way to create beautiful images by drawing structured patterns that we call tangles. You create tangles with combinations of dots, lines, simple curves, S-curves, and orbs. There are a few tangles in the history of the Zentangle Method that are known more and used more often and manipulated more than others. Their forms are basic, resilient, familiar and they have the potential to be so much more in so many ways.
This project pack will take a deep dive into one tangle and all that it stands for. As usual, we are taking a very creative, outside the box approach to this fun theme.
Tangle along with Molly and Martha as they guide you through the second lesson in this series.
We are very excited about the content we have for this Project Pack, but we also realize that we have packed a lot in to the twelve days. So, we wanted you all to know that it is OK to take it all in at whatever pace you need to. If you have not already, take a look at Molly's most recent blog on tangling at your own pace.

Day 2 is stunning. I am enjoying watching the videos and look forward to putting pen to paper soon.

Love the tiles and (surprise for me) I love now that they are prestrung. Yesterday I finished day 2 after 2 days of delicious tangling. It is my first bought PP and I enjoy every second using it. Thank you for all the careful thoughts you put into every detail (materials, blog posts, videos, etc.). I even took a few oopsies on my tile very relaxed, thinking: now it is different and I love it.
Have a very lovely tangling time at Zentangle HQ and to all fellow tanglers

Just completed Day 1 and loved it. I tend to forget how wonder the Zentangle paper is. It is so smooth and ink just loves it. The jelly roll pens glide over and cover the paper so well. Looking forward to Day 2!

I got the project pack last month and I was very excited to see the contents and how you would play with it. The new tile looks great and I love the thickness of it! I look forward to starting this lesson soon.

I am loving this series so far! I really loved how Tripoli, a variation of course, was easier for me to draw. I also like working on the larger tile and I’m looking forward to using them more!

I am thinking of copying this into Zendala translucenZ and drawing it.
And the very unique and considered prestring phi will also be helpful in the future.
First of all, I will enjoy the 12 days of Zentangle, so as not to be a white rabbit.
