A 21 dots sikku kolam for @kolamenthusiasts #Wednesday #kolamenthusiaststaskkolam We four, @meena_paulraj @me.enakshi3034 @vanianandakumaran and I as a team created a string of Brahmamudi kolams. Meena Paulraj led our team by deciding the patterns, dot count, of course allotting the designs to the partners and creating the final collage 😊

Lay the 21 Dots Matrix
Sprinkle a few drops of water on the threshold. Place the 21 Dots Matrix with even spacing using white rice flour or chalk, ensuring interlaced dots sit nested diagonally between adjacent rows.
Start with the Central Core Loop
Locate the central anchor dots. Loop a fluid, continuous curve encircling the inner dots to establish the foundation of the design. Beginning at the center ensures balanced 4-fold symmetry.
Weave Around the Outer Dots
Pinch dry rice powder between your thumb and forefinger. Guide continuous, flowing waves threading between and around the perimeter dots without lifting your fingers or stopping mid-turn.
Connect the Final Loops & Add Kaavi
Connect the outer curves smoothly back into the starting loop so all lines merge into complete, closed loops. Frame the outer corners with traditional red Kaavi (red ochre) border for clean contrast.
