Fine print instantly had me thinking about newspapers and magazines. But, finding absolutely nothing remotely close to anything like that, I knew I was in for a bumpy ride today. After looking for quite a while, I decided to use a hint, which gave me TARTAN in the top right.
I still couldn’t get the theme and had to use another hint to get ARGYLE. It was when I accidentally stumbled upon STRIPES in the bottom right that I realized what the theme was about. I was on the right track since I found CHEVRON and PAISLEY rather quickly right after.
PATTERNS was the Spangram for the day, and the last remaining grids housed GINGHAM. And, well, that was it for today’s Strands!
