About Nine patterns in a 9x9 rangOli : PRINT
While I did a few patterns on a 10x10 grid, I found ten is an even number and the pattern does not have a central "point". I thought why not a 9x9 grid? I took a well known 3x3 pattern which everyone knows except that I did it with strings long ago ( http://www.ikolam.com/node/4869?p=1930 ). I repeated this nine times and connected them in such a way that only one line results. This looks a bit like svAstika. Others too can try 9x9 patterns. May be laTAji may open a folder for this too

That typo is hardly noticeable, Mohanaji. I was busy gazing at the focal point and can't help admiring the purple bleed.

Very pretty 9x9 pattern. The change in colour of the central 3x3 is very nice.

Lovely pattern, JKM Sir. The effect produced by the purple colour oozing out from the central design to the side chains is great!!
