This design can be drawn with 7 dots, 9 dots, 11 dots etc.  Maneuvering around the dots using curved lines comes with practice and the more we practice nearer to perfection we get.  That is the secret of these type of kolams.  Some of us may get intimidated looking at the final design but when we get it right we get a lot of mental satisfaction.  Can be drawn as part of our daily kolangal.

The next kolam uses 6 dots 4 rows then 4 dots on all sides.  A simple design too

The dot pattern is 7 to 1 , this kolam made beautiful by using colourful lines and free hand patterns
through simple hacks

Sikku kolam is like football when a defender twists his legs and falls when tricked by a forward.  I don't know whether it is a correct analogy , anyway sometimes I am reminded of this whenever I am caught midway in the kolam !!
