This is the firth part of my Mix and Match Mandalas CAL, and we are now nicely in the middle of the mandala series. At this point I have released the video tutorials for Small Mandala I & II, Medium Mandala I and Large Mandala I and you could make 6 possible combinations with those 4 patterns. By adding Medium Mandala II to the mix, you can now make 10 different mandala combinations.
In this post I release the video tutorial showing how to make Medium Mandala II. The video is available in English and Dutch, left and right handed. You can get your copy of the written pattern and charts by grabbing Mix and Match Mandalas in my webshop or follow along with the video tutorials on my YouTube Channel for free.

To make Medium Mandala II, I first started with a making a small mandala. It doesn’t matter which one you take, I chose to use Small Mandala II, but this could just as easily have been Small Mandala I. Here are the colors I used for Small Mandala II.
ROUND | COLOR |
---|---|
Round 1 | Color H – 397 Cyan |
Round 2 | Color F – 208 Yellow Gold |
Round 3 | Color F – 208 Yellow Gold |
Round 4 | Color E – 205 Kiwi |
Round 5 | Color E – 205 Kiwi |
Round 6 | Color A – 130 Old Lace |
Round 7 | Color A – 130 Old Lace |
Round 8 | Color I – 146 Vivid Blue |
Round 9 | Color I – 146 Vivid Blue |
Round 10 | Color H – 397 Cyan |
At the end of Round 10, I continue with the pattern for Medium Mandala II and add the following colors for each round. I purposefully used the same color for the last round of the small mandala and the first round of the medium mandala because then the color pattern flows better.
ROUND | COLOR |
---|---|
Round 1 | Color H – 397 Cyan |
Round 2 | Color F – 208 Yellow Gold |
Round 3 | Color D – 282 Ultraviolet |
Round 4 | Color C – 226 Light Orchid |
Round 5 | Color E – 205 Kiwi |
Round 6 | Color A – 130 Old Lace |
I completed Medium Mandala I by attaching it to a 25cm ring. I used the same colors as the last round of the mandala to attach it to the ring, i.e. Color A – 130 Old Lace.
