N-line method (Kambi Kolam)
1. Draw N-lines. Connect neighboring dots (up, down, left, or right) by dragging from dot to dot. All dots should be connected by these lines, with no closed loops. A × marks the crossing (midpoint) of each N-line. Symmetry repeats your connections.
2. Trace the path. With the white freehand, draw one continuous line that visits every × exactly once and returns to the start. At each ×: go straight through the crossing, then turn around the dot next to it. Alternate turning direction (clockwise then anti-clockwise) at each crossing so the path forms a single closed loop through all crossings.
Tip: start at a × on the edge or corner. Lower “Lines & × opacity” to see your tracing clearly.
