Double Lacing
(Lug version)
|
|
A lug version of Double Lacing. Another way of ending up with two colours is
to use two laces. These are interwoven up the shoe, ending up with four lace ends that can then be tied creatively. |
The four ends of the two shoelaces end up at the top of the shoe.
 |
Lacing Technique:
1. Start with two different coloured laces, each shorter than the original laces from that shoe.
2. Feed one lace (purple in my example) straight across the bottom and up through both bottom lugs.
3. Cross the ends over and, skipping one set of lugs, feed up through the third set of lugs.
4. Continue crossing over and going up two sets of lugs at a time until you reach either the top or second from
top set of lugs.
5. Take the other lace (orange in my example) and, starting from the second set of lugs, repeat steps (2)
through (4) until the remaining lugs are laced with the second lace.
FEATURES:
 Very decorative
Creative options
 Needs new laces
NOTE:
If your shoes have odd numbers of sets of lugs (such as the 5 sets in the above diagram), one lace will pass
through more lugs than the other. The two laces will therefore need to be different
Lengths. |
