The answers to today’s Strands, game #113, are…
TARTAN PAISLEY GINGHAM STRIPES CHEVRON ARGYLE SPANGRAM: PATTERNS My rating: Easy My score: Perfect
I liked this Strands puzzle. It’s challenging enough to keep your brain working, but without some of the rather silly elements that sometimes frustrate about this game. For instance, it all makes logical sense – the spangram is PATTERNS, and the answers are all… patterns! Genius!

It took me a while to get started, but once I came up with TARTAN the theme was obvious, although the clue of ‘fine print’ was not particularly helpful in retrospect. Some of the answers were straightforward – I’m looking at you, STRIPES and PAISLEY – but the likes of ARGYLE and GINGHAM were a lot less so. Enjoyable.
