Jorge, I don't understand how you did this wrap. I thought you were supposed to do two threads on bottom and two on top with one being a pulloout thread. I'm new to the tiger wrap so if you would'nt mind giving me some instuction on how you did this wrap I would really appreciate it. Thank you!!!

Way to go, Jorge. As far as I know, this three-color thing was your idea. At least your wraps were the first three-color moires I had seen. I've gotten to where I never do two colors anymore. I LOVE these wraps and this one above is AWESOME. Again, this is one of those color combinations I would have never thought to try but agree looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Don, you can technically use as many threads as you want on the bottom - although in my opinion three is much easier AND gives you better results than either four or five. I personally can't make six work.
The key is to use the same number of threads you used on the underwrap, overwrapped in the opposite direction, and pull out all but one to get the maximum effect. So, just like you use 2 on bottom and 2 on top with one pull out on a 'normal' tiger, use three on bottom, three on top (in the opposite direction) and pull out two (leaving one) in the overwrap. Make sense? This opens up the color combinations exponentially. You can get some really, really cool blends or very dramatic effects. More details here: [ link ]
