This pattern is for the main subatomic particles that make up all matter in our universe (as well as their corresponding antiparticles). Specifically it covers all the particles that students should be aware of for A-level physics (at least for the exam board that I did). It will also include some explanation about these particles (this is based on my fairly basic understanding from A-level so if anyone feels that the physics is incorrect please do get in touch!)

Note that the exact colours don’t matter too much, I’ve chosen these ones as I feel they go well together. If you only want to make the particles (i.e. don’t care about the antiparticles) the number of each type of particle you make should be halved (i.e. 6 quarks instead of 12). Particles and antiparticles are differentiated based on the embroidery on them (white=particle, black=antiparticle).
