No, I've not written a pattern for one, but almost every snowflake may be made into a five-point star or a (choke) seven-point snowflake with minimal adjustments just by miscounting the number of points. King's Crown probably would take some adjustments to become a seven-pointer because it's so big, but any of the smaller ones probably could be converted very easily just by making seven points instead of six.Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-90542030801307191932015-02-19T07:06:49.359-07:002015-02-19T07:06:49.359-07:00All of them are with a macro extension tube on my ...All of them are with a macro extension tube on my macro lens, Di. All were shot on a blue glass plate fashioned for us by the husband of one of my co-workers. The third one down was before the glass got cold enough to preserve the snowflakes as I shot. The flake began melting right away, before I could focus. I think the texture of the glass shows in some of these photos.Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-79145896173988910862015-02-19T07:04:49.827-07:002015-02-19T07:04:49.827-07:00Thanks, Di!

I'm working on the Kings Cross one and was ecstatic when I got the first crown done, my husband looked at me like I was crazy! Do you have a pattern for a 7 sided snowflake? I remember reading that your mom liked them.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038746955381499729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-70761106938260430892015-02-18T20:48:55.375-07:002015-02-18T20:48:55.375-07:00How was the 3rd one down done.How was the 3rd one down done.dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15175331149175356947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-5831182766426093622015-02-18T20:47:50.366-07:002015-02-18T20:47:50.366-07:00I'm in love.
