The initial collection of Entanglements patterns has been released: clean charts, color references, and floss lists in print-ready PDFs. More designs follow as time and interest allow, with a Patreon on the way for those who'd like to follow along.

Color Groups

Gradient colors

Crafters pick their own color groups from this list or create their own original ones. Each color group is comprised of three shades that, stitched side-by-side, blend into a convincing bevel illusion.

Dedicated Originality

Entanglements origins

Each pattern is the result of a long design process: from an initial sketch, to a pixel art draft, to a printed chart, to a final stitched completion. The designs are inspired by the forms and symmetries of ancient Roman mosiacs, Celtic knots, Islamic, Hindu, & Buddhist geometric patterns, and the natural world.
