Simple 10-2 Dots Rangoli — Step by Step Guide
Pace yourself through the steps — kolam rewards patience more than speed.
- Set out the dot grid the photo labels 10 to 2 dots. The dots still visible in the finished kolam sit on a diamond, so use the tapering diamond grid: widest across the middle, each row shorter than the last until only two dots remain at the top and at the bottom.
- Leave the block of dots in the middle completely bare. This design has nothing at all in the centre, and the finished kolam shows those plain dots surrounded by empty floor.
- Draw the first flower over the dots at the top of the grid: six broad rounded petals radiating from one centre, two aiming up, one to each side, two aiming down, with a small notch dipping in wherever two neighbouring petals meet.
- At the middle of that flower draw a small ring, a little circle with an open hole in it.
- Around the ring add four groups of three short strokes: three upright strokes above the ring, three upright strokes below it, three level strokes to its left and three level strokes to its right.
- Repeat the identical flower three more times, at the bottom of the grid and at the left and the right, so the four flowers sit around the bare centre like the four arms of a plus sign.
- Keep all four flowers the same size and the same way up. None of them is rotated to face the centre, so every flower has its notch at the top and its upright strokes above and below the ring.
- The photo shows the flowers in plain white powder; fill the petals and the ring in your chosen colours if you want a coloured version.

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.

Rice flour, coloured rangoli powders, and a clean stretch of floor or paper. Some draw with chalk first to set the grid before powdering over it.

About 3 min 44 sec on screen, perhaps 15 minutes for a relaxed first attempt. By the second try most people are noticeably quicker.
