The rangoli below is called krishnan dindu (Krishna's arm rest or bolster is a rough translation) For this design also I have used a quadra - line design.
Draw curved lines to connect all the straight lines to get the final design that looks like an endless loop. Fill the design completely with colours of your choice.
When completed one cannot see where the rangoli starts and where it ends. These rangolis are very simple and very easy to draw.
One intermediate step of this kolam or rangoli is shown below. The images are self-explanatory, I think.
I have shared small white kolam with lines, we can make them colourful, if required, add decorations also around the central rangoli design
This website also has posts on recipes and
crafts - some examples are given below for reference

If you are also looking for without chukki rangoli or no chukkala muggulu , this post may be helpful to you. Afterall my blog is Rangolisansdots - rangoli designs without dots is my forte:)
Here is a kolam without dots with a few intermediate steps . White kolam is ubiquitous in India. I am also one of the thousands of ladies who draw kolam daily in the morning at the entrance, so it is easy for me share the designs I create for my vasal kolam.
The kolam below based on birds' designs, I created spontaneously. Almost all free hand kolam are.
Draw the central pattern as shown in the first image. Birds can be drawn at the four corners. Decorate as shown in the third picture. Fill with white kola podi since invariable we do not use colours for our daily kolam.
Of course, if required kaavi colour (ochre) can be used around the rangoli
My followers on social media say they like what is according to them "old and traditional way of making rangolis, no wasting of rangolis, just simple and sweet " Actually that is what kolam is all about, thin lines, creating new patterns every day, dexterity etc are given more importance.
"You make us watch all your rangoli videos " says another viewer. It is all God/s grace
