Here are the kolams and rangolis in this page:
- Another sOnA bRndAvana
- sOnA square (r2 c5, five squares, two colours)
- A dotted rangOli for tulasi bRndAvana
- Hexagonal chikku kOlam - 11
- Hexagonal chikku kOlam - 10
- Hexagonal chikku kOlam - 9
- Triangular chikku kOlam - 1
- Hexagonal chikku kOlam - 7
This is a novel sOnA square whose basic motif is one with dots in two rows and five columns covered by a single string. When assembled as in this presentation, the design contains two coloured woven strings. There is enough space for five normal sOnA sqaures. Enjoy!

Here is a dotted rangOli for tulasi bRndAvana. The central pattern is the brRndAvana and the outer design is the rangOli for it. I will discuss more about this and others of this class in great detail in my blog at a later time. This is a part of my ongoing research on the sOna patterns. Anybody willing to reproduce it? Enjoy!

The difference between this and hck-10 is that the same basic motif was rotated by 90 degrees and assembled together. This has four strings. Thus the starting orientation is quite important for the final product. The central gap was filled with another design. Enjoy!

This rangOli was assembled with a 3 x 3 motif (three rows and three columns). The original motif had three strings. The hexagonal one has one long pink string with six small dark blue strings. Just to keep the central region filled, I inserted a star of David. If you want to draw this on the floor, have the dots 7-13-7 (staggered or in between) and then follow the diagram. At the end, remove the dots that are not part of this pattern or fill them with something else. Enjoy!

I have uploaded already the hck's with (3-4-5-4-5), (4-5-6-7-5-4) dot patterns. By the way the 2-3-2 rangOli is trivial with only two colours. Today I am uploading one with (5-6-7-8-9-8-7-6-5) dot pattern. This has got six strings with similar symmetry. What Mrs Jaya Mohan said is true. These hck's bear resemblance to the aiSvarya rangOlis. In fact, I have discussed the aiSvarya rangOlis more than a year ago at
http://www.ikolam.com/node/5387?p=1930
The number of colours there plus two is the total number of colours you will get for these rangOlis. The pattern here is a modofication of the third one at the top in that. I arrived at these independently in a different way. jayAjI's comments urged me to go back to the above. Enjoy!

Here is a triangular chikku kOlam assemebled with a 5 x 2 sOna pattern. It is a single string rangOli with the symmetry 32 (120 deg rotations about a vertical axis and three 180 deg rotations in the plane). Enjoy!

People seemed to have liked the hck-3, at http://www.ikolam.com/node/14100?p=10760
Actually in this series, this is not the simplest one. The simplest one is with dots 3, 4, 5, 4, 3. That is what I am displaying now. Enjoy!
