How to Draw a Cheer Bow
Draw a cheer bow in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the knot.
Step 1: The knot
In the middle of your paper, a little high, draw a small rounded box, taller than it is wide.
Step 2: Left loop
From the knot's left side, draw a big loop up and out, round the tall end, and back.
Tip Make the far end much taller than the knot, like a wing.
Step 3: Right loop
From the knot's right side, draw the same big loop, just as tall and just as wide.
Step 4: Left tail
From under the knot, draw a long straight tail slanting down left. Cut a V notch in its end.
Step 5: Right tail
Draw the same long tail slanting down to the right, with a V notch in its end.
Step 6: Pinch folds
Start on each side of the knot. Draw 2 short curved lines out into each loop, stopping soon.
Step 7: Loop dots
Draw 3 round dots inside each loop, spread out and clear of the edges.
Step 8: Tail dots
Draw 2 round dots down the middle of each tail.
Step 9: Yellow knot
Colour the knot in the middle yellow.
Step 10: Blue loops
Colour both big loops blue, going around the dots. Leave the dots white.
Step 11: Blue tails
Colour both tails blue, around the dots. Your cheer bow is ready!
