The newest Two Hole Triangle beads called Tango are mixed with the Silky Two Hole Diamond Beads and O beads to make this a geometric, bold collar style necklace. It takes a bit of attention to detail as all these new beads need special handling to make sure they fit together and combine to make this great art deco pattern. It is a modified RAW with a touch f modified Peyote stitch and a intermediate level pattern. It is a repetitive pattern so as soon as you get through a couple units it works up fast. I have close up photos, see last photo, computer generated graphics and a legend which will help in the multi hole, multi direction beads.
I have a cuff bracelet that matches this available as well and you can get both patterns at a discount, see link below.

With these new, bigger beads like the Kheops, Silky, Tangos and CZ Mates I recommend using 8 lb and maybe sew through a second time or use 6 lb and double thread. These new beads are heavier and have holes that travel at sharp angles so it pays to be overly cautious. Just like with Superduos, check your holes for plugs and chips.
