What I love about drawing patterns is how new pattern ideas emerge from existing patterns. Sometimes it’s just enough to remove a couple of lines and a new interesting pattern emerges. This particular pattern came about as a variation of the previously posted pattern “TV Show ‘Extant’ Inspired Coloring Pattern”. This version is created by removing crossing lines as shown in the picture below.

I’ve decided to name this pattern Wind Rose because the 4-ray star shape in this pattern resembles the shape also known as Rose of the Winds, or a compass rose, a figure on a compass, map, nautical chart, or monument used to display the orientation of the cardinal directions (north, east, south, and west) according to Wikipedia.

Here are the drawing instructions and a few coloring designs.
