Naboo Fighter, from "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace"

designed by Margo Mead

Level: Advanced

Materials:

• 4 yards cord of choice
• 1 lanyard hook or keyring
• 119 yellow or goldenrod pony beads (goldenrod available from Bolek's)
• 30 grey pony beads
• 7 clear pony beads
• 1 white pony bead

Special Instructions: Follow stringpath carefully. For engines, string 13 beads on one string and weave back through as shown, then add 18 more beads and complete engine as shown.

To keep ends of engines from wandering off, you can take a small piece of leftover cord, slip it through the very last bead of one engine (bead 31), through the 13th row of the body of the fighter, and through the very last bead of the other engine. Tie knots at both ends of the cord after adjusting the engines as you'd like them.
