Snowflake #70 Ornament Pattern

Lots of sparkle in this snowflake Ornament. It's made using lots of Swarovski crystals. It would make a special gift for yourself or a friend.

Start by waxing and stretching your thread, use Nymo D or C-Lon & a #11 or #12 beading needle. I used Fireline 6lb. crystal.  Tie in a "stopper" bead, leaving about an 12" tail and begin at step #1. R = Round Each Round begins at the red dot in drawing

Round 1 Pick up 6A, go with fishing line forward through the 1st A bead just added.

Round 2 a) Pick up 2B, 1A, 1C, 1A, 2B, go with fishing line left to right through 2 A beads in R1. b) Pick up 2B, 1A, 1C, 1A, go with fishing line down through the 2nd and 1st B beads added in (a), and left to right through 2 A beads in R1. c) Pick up 2B, 1A, 1C, 1A, go with fishing line down through the 2nd and 1st B beads added in (b), and left to right through 2 A beads in R1. d) Repeat (c) around 2 more times. e) Go working line up through the last 2 B beads added in this Round at (a). Pick up 1A, 1C, 1A, go with fishing line down through the 2nd and 1st B beads added in the last repeat of (c), left to right through 1 A bead in R1, up through the last 2 B beads added in this Round at (a), right to left through the 1st A and 1 C beads just added in this step.

Round 3 a) Pick up 1B, 1E, 1A, 1C, 1A, 1E, 1B, go with fishing line right to left through the 1 C bead, 2 A and the 1 C beads added in Round 2. b) Repeat (a) around 5 more times. c) Continue with working fishing line up through the 1 B, 1 E and 1 A beads in the first repeat of (a) this Round.

Round 4 a) Pick up 1B, 3E, 1B, go with fishing line down through the 2nd 1 A and 1 E beads, R3. b) Pick up 1D, go with fishing line up through the 1st 1 E and 1 A beads, R3. c) Repeat (a, b) around 5 more times. d) Weave the working thread into the snowflake and end.
