The Brick (Supersquare) Stitch

The Brick Stitch is basically two Square Stitches next to each other...

You will need:
3 pieces of craft lace - 2 shorter pieces of equal length, and 1 longer piece that is 1.5 times the length of one of the shorter pieces; 1' of lace for the short pieces and 1.5' of lace for the long piece will equal about 1.5'' of lanyard

Tips:
If you have trouble starting the stitch, practice doing the Square Stitch starter stitch, since they are similar.
