Simple nelivu kolam for beginners

 This is a simple but awesome kolam with 7 to 1 pulli.  The pics should be helpful for learners to try this kolam.  We can use it for our vasal kolangal or as part of our Margazhi festival decoration.
Though it is small rangoli many steps have been added because we should not underestimate this muggu based on size.  If you are looking for 7 pulli kambi kolam , 7 dots sikku kolam or chukki rangoli 7 to1 ( though this is not a classical chukki design because we go round the dots )

Also called melikala muggulu or gantina rangoli these types are popular in South India.  We invariably find many houses decorated with sikku kolam
