Bhogi kolam designs with dots

 Try this big kolam for an important festival like Bhogi.  The dot pattern is 16 dots - 8 rows and then 8 dots 4 rows. An old fashioned kolam but very beautiful.  Using only likes we can get a beautiful rangoli as shown in the picture below.

The next kolam is a beautiful design .  The dot pattern is 15 to 8.  If we add colours or with just colourful shading , the result will be awesome as seen the photo below

The patterns look like pliers don't they !! 

Many posts in this blog are with one or more intermediate steps ( maximum two , I guess ) to make easy for learning.  However there are many who know many kolam designs with steps but cannot decide what to draw for Bhogi ( previous day before Makar Sankranthi ) . To make it easy for them , I have shared some photos. 
 Also for benefit of those who want to learn,  I have added steps for the last kolam.
