I found this pattern and took a look at it (when you hover over the picture with your mouse you see it enlarged).
There is no 5-pair crossing. It is a 4-pair crossing; a pair from upper left and upper right, crossing at the bead, and then exiting lower left and lower right. The part of the pattern centred at the bottom has no pair going into it. The picture is of too low a quality for me to figure out how to do the hanging beads.
