One wedge of the simple snowflake: three snips and a slanted cut across the top. The black part is the paper you keep, the fine line is the edge of the folded wedge, and both long sides are folds. A good first pattern for children.

Will it cut at your size?
Scaling a design scales its thinnest part too. Here is this one at seven sizes, from 1 to 12 inches on its longer side, with how many copies fit a 12 × 12 inch sheet or mat.
| Size, width × height | Narrowest part | Cut length | Fit on a 12 in sheet | Rule of thumb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.52 × 1 in (13 × 25 mm) | 0.91 mm | 119 mm | 160 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 1.04 × 2 in (26 × 51 mm) | 1.8 mm | 237 mm | 45 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 1.55 × 3 in (39 × 76 mm) | 2.7 mm | 356 mm | 18 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 2.07 × 4 in (53 × 102 mm) | 3.7 mm | 474 mm | 10 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 3.11 × 6 in (79 × 152 mm) | 5.5 mm | 712 mm | 3 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 4.14 × 8 in (105 × 203 mm) | 7.3 mm | 949 mm | 2 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 6.22 × 12 in (158 × 305 mm) | 11 mm | 1,423 mm | 1 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
The narrowest part is the thinnest neck that holds the design together; sharp tips are not counted. For wood and acrylic, keep it at least as wide as the sheet is thick. How to open the file in Cricut, Silhouette and laser software.
