Making notes

Sort all eight roles before placing the adjacent salmon and rice shades. Preserve row 1 and rows 16–17 as padding, then recount the full-width middle row.

A compact sushi piece layers white and shadowed rice, nori, several salmon tones, wasabi green and small soy-brown accents without merging the topping into a generic stripe. The editable 17×17 result contains 182 occupied cells across 8 source roles.

Outline the nori base, stack rice cells above it, then place salmon bands in their photographed sequence. Finish the condiment and shadow accents after the rectangular structure is square. Use row 9, the fullest row at 17 occupied positions, as a horizontal recount anchor. Eight roles cross only fourteen active rows, so adjacent salmon and rice shades can be confused. Preserve the one top and two bottom padding rows and audit the full-width middle row. Occupied bounds run from row 2 to row 15 and column 1 to column 17.

Pattern layout and bead count

The occupied motif measures 17×14 and is normalized to 17×17 with 1 top, 2 bottom. No occupied cell is cropped, scaled, mirrored or moved. The 182-bead chart fits one standard 29×29 square pegboard. This framing protects the nigiri topping geometry. Checkpoints: First occupied row 2: F C9–C13. Confirm the nigiri topping entry point. Fullest row 9 contains 17 occupied cells; compare its complete left-to-right sequence before fusing. Use it as the nigiri topping span audit. Rarest role Soy Brown occurs 6 times at R8C12, R9C12, R10C12, R11C12, R12C12, R13C12. Recheck this role beside the nigiri topping landmark. Padding audit: 1 top, 2 bottom; active bounds are R2–R15 and C1–C17. The nigiri topping boundary must remain inside those limits.

Ways to customize this pattern

For an alternate edition, recolor Nori Outline, Salmon Orange, Salmon Midtone, Wasabi Green, Salmon Red, Soy Brown, Rice Shadow, Rice White as separate value roles while leaving every occupied coordinate and 17×17 normalization unchanged. Keep the silhouette-specific landmarks and rare accents distinct at thumbnail size.

Sort the source roles as 68 Nori Outline, 15 Salmon Orange, 34 Salmon Midtone, 11 Wasabi Green, 15 Salmon Red, 6 Soy Brown, 16 Rice Shadow, 17 Rice White. Keep Soy Brown distinct even though it contributes only 6 cells; Brand remapping should preserve the same light-to-dark hierarchy and never merge an occupied role with background.

Print and iron checklist

Straight bands can warp if one side receives more heat. Iron alternating left and right sections, keep the rice edge crisp, and flatten the finished rectangle immediately. Inspect narrow joints from the reverse before mounting or exporting a replacement chart. Before export, verify the 17×17 coordinates, 182-bead total and all 8 active color roles against the on-page material list.

Project ideas for Salmon Sushi

The food icon works for a restaurant seating marker, bento planner, cuisine vocabulary tile or refrigerator magnet. A rectangular card back supports all topping corners. Keep labels, dates and explanatory text on a separate backing so the approved silhouette stays unchanged.

The source grid uses F and the other design symbols only as internal color roles. The interactive chart replaces them with the selected manufacturer codes, while its material list combines any roles that map to the same bead color.
