Multicenters temari
These intricately marked temari are also called multipole or just multis. Begin with a temari marked in a combination division and add support lines to make the smaller sections. Support lines are just extra guidelines stitched to the ball.
The most common multis are based on a C10(combination 10 division). You use either the side of the 6-part triangle (triangle based) or the side of the 4-part diamond (diamond based) to add support lines.
Triangle Based Multis
Find the 6-part triangle on a combination 10 division temari.
Measure one of the sides and divide into sections.
Divide triangle side by: | # centers total |
3 | 32 |
6 | 122 |
9 | 272 |
12 | 482 |
After placing pins in the sides of all the triangles, stitch the support lines.
Diamond Based Multis
Find the 4-part diamond on the temari.
Measure one of the sides and divide into sections.
Divide diamond side by: | # centers total |
2 | 42 |
3 | 92 |
4 | 162 |
5 | 252 |
