INTERMEDIATE PATTERN

Blast Off pony bead pattern

Blast Off stacks every technique from the starter set into one vertical build: a rounded nose cone, a symmetric body with a ringed porthole, mirrored fins, and a flame that alternates yellow and orange every few rows so it genuinely flickers.

The deep blue sky with scattered white stars frames it. Count carefully on the fin rows — they flare outward one bead at a time.
