This is my first experiment with 2-hole triangle beads, as well as my first design using a large (20mm) rivoli.  This pattern only works with 11/0 Miyuki seed beads, and also requires 15/0 seed beads and 4mm crystals.  I strung the pendant on 0.015in beading wire, making two loops  through 6/0 seed beads to create a “bow” shape above the pendant.  To match the strung part of the necklace with the pendant, I used 6mm crystals the same color as the 2-hole triangle beads.  (Although the diagram only includes steps for making the pendant, you can examine the photos to determine stringing pattern for the rest of the necklace).  The pendant can also be hung on a cord, chain, or ribbon instead, if desired.  I hope you enjoy this free beading pattern!

This is so pretty but I can only find the Swarovski Rivoli (code 1122) in 12mm, 14mm, 16mm & 18mm.
What is the Swarovski code for the 20mm rivoli please?
This is so pretty

Actually it was one of the few crystals I had that is not Swarovski – I got it on sale at Hobby Lobby (so I don’t know the maker), and I haven’t seen that Hobby Lobby carries them anymore, at least not at my location.
