Ciottoli - a light filler

You have already seen relatively often this pattern on this blog. I have played a lot with it, when I need to fill some space with something light, it is my go to. It looks a bit like tipple and a lot like another pattern whose name cannot find now, I will write it soon!
Ciottoli is an Italian word for rounded stones you usually find around a river. I think it is pebbles in English. And it fills the space like almost in the 'Nzeppel style, taking the space like a little balloon.

  1. Ciottoli ist toll. Ich muss es unbedingt tangeln

    1. Es hilft auch um grosse Teile schnell zu fillen und auch leicht. Manchmall will man etwa nicht zu stark und dunkel, but trotzdem etwas da. Und mit Ciottoli funktioniert auch ohne eine dunnere Fineliner!

  2. So it’s different from Tipple because some of them are more square-ish?

    1. I would call almost none of them an orb, so yes, that is why I gave it a different name. They are squareish with rounded corners, in 'Nzeppel style.
