Introduction
On this page several snowflake-grounds with 4 pairs are collected.
Usually, the little snowflake is drawn as picture on the left, on a 60 degree grid. The little snowflake can also be drawn on a 45 degree grid - especially the ones that are “crossed”.
Most of the variants shown on this page benefit of extra pins on the sides. As in the picture on the right. In the prickings below, the pins are not drawn.

Other arrangements
Please note the resemblance with paris grounds and ground d) with the stacked spiders.
Binche Snowflake
The six-pair snowflake is moved to its own page.
Half little snowflake
If the stitches indicated in white in the picture on the right are omitted, we get a half little snowflake. This can be used in several configurations.
The examples are moved to a page with other 3 paired joins.
Windmill snowflakes
The name of these snowflakes is based on origami. The examples are moved to their own page.
Making of
Some of the grounds can be made either as a crossed snowflake or as a rose ground. See the example below: the result is the same.
