11 By 6 Simple — Step by Step Guide

Pace yourself through the steps — kolam rewards patience more than speed.

  1. Lay out the dot grid the caption calls 11 to 6 — a hexagonal field with eleven dots across its widest middle row tapering to six in the top and bottom rows. Most of it vanishes under the drawing; a few spare dots stay showing in the gaps.
  2. Draw the middle flower first, on the centre of the grid: eight broad pointed petals evenly spaced all the way round, their bases meeting at one common point.
  3. Decorate it with a small ring at the exact centre, and from that ring a straight stalk into each petal ending in a small ring about two thirds of the way to the petal tip.
  4. Ring the middle flower with six more identical eight-petal flowers — two above, one to the left, one to the right and two below — so the seven flowers pack together into a hexagon.
  5. Between neighbouring flowers draw the long sweeping arcs that separate them: each arc curves from one flower's petal tip round to the next, and together they cradle the six outer flowers against the middle one.
  6. Fill each of the six gaps on the outer rim with a long teardrop loop, round at the outer end and drawn to a sharp point at the inner end — upright at the top and bottom, lying along the diagonals at the four corners.
  7. Put a short stalk with a small blob inside each teardrop, matching the stalks in the flower petals.
  8. Leave the little clusters of spare grid dots showing in the gaps between the arcs; nothing is drawn over them.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I draw this rangoli?

The grid comes first. Use a soft chalk to dot the surface, count twice to confirm the spacing, then start connecting them following the video. Work from the centre outward.

Is this suitable for beginners?

Beginner-friendly is exactly the right description. The video walks through every line clearly and you can match the pace.

What materials do I need?

Just three things: powder (white plus any colours you want), a flat dry surface, and a few minutes of focus. A small bowl per colour helps keep things tidy.

How long does it take?

You will see a 5 min 47 sec walkthrough above. Drawing it yourself is usually a 12–18 minute affair, slightly slower the first time.

Drawing kolam is as much about the practice as the result. Set aside ten minutes, follow the video, and enjoy the process.
