Many of my crystal jewellery patterns use Triangle weave, so I have provided
these easy instructions to show you how to make a Triangle weave circle.
Each triangle of beads is marked with a T, for example T1, T2 etc.
You can use amost any beads with Triangle weave and different beads will have
a different effect. The beads used in this example are 3 OR 4mm pearls and size
15/o seed beads.
I have divided the pattern into steps and the code for the instructions is as follows:
T1 - Triangle 1
GP - Gold pearls
15/o seed beads - seeds
Refer to the diagrams in Steps 1 - 6 while you are following the written
instructions
The light shaded areas in the diagrams show beadwork that has already been
stitched. The darker shaded areas show beadwork that still has to be
stitched.
