A concentric diamond is the quiet all-rounder of simple patterns: a symmetrical shape built from nested rings of color, ending in a single bright center. Because every ring is one bead thick and mirror-symmetric, it is excellent practice for reading and following a chart accurately. Recolor the rings to match any palette — it works as a coaster, a coordinated set, or a border motif.
