There are 12 rounds in total so there are twelve colour decisions that need to be made when making this mandala.
Attic24 mandala wheel i ve designed this mandala wheel as part of a big creative project that i am co ordinating for yarndale the amazing yarn festival i help to organise.
I ve found that you need around 2 to 2 5 cm all around so that the mandala can be gently pulled out and stretched when attached to the hoop.
Choose 4 colours to use for the central flower and 4 to use for the surrounding mandala circle.

Lucy from attic 24 has asked people the world over to crochet a mandala and send it to her so that she can create a breathtaking wall display of mandalas for yarndale.
