Pony Bead Cub Scout Neckerchief Slide: Materials: 30 beads 2 24" long strings of boondoggle craft cord String the first row of three beads onto a cord and push to the center of the cord.  Lace the 2nd row of beads onto another cord. Lace the other cord through the same beads in reverse order.  Pull both cords snugly.   Continue with the next row of beads until you have 10 laced rows, 5 out from one side and 5 from the other.   Loop beads around and string one cord through the first row of beads.  Tie cords together pulling tight. Push loose ends into the next row of beads.  Repeat with the other three strings. Pull strings really tight and snip. A completed Neckerchief Slide!
