I've had a few people bead my Crosio pattern recently which has made me take another look at it.

With this project you can create geometric beadwork with texture for some crochet inspired projects... This intermediate pattern covers 2 different sizes of Crosio each of which can be a pendant or beaded bead.

This is a 40-page pattern for multiple projects (even how to make the little tassels I used) and you must be comfortable with Brick Stitch and using size 15 seed beads.

Also included are the instructions on playing with colours and how to use your Crosio pieces.

The 2 different sizes included in the instructions are 42mm/ 1¾ inches or 35mm/ 1 ½ inches across

A full requirements list is included e (including details of all the colours I used) but the general requirements are:

• 2mm Swarovski round pearls #5810 or 2mm Czech round Pearls
• Size 15 Miyuki seed beads
• Size 11 Cylinder beads eg Delicas, Aikos or Treasures
• 25mm or 35mm wooden bead (optional)
• Needle & thread of choice
