The Zipper Stitch

The Zipper Stitch is a simple stitch that can be done fairly quickly.

You will need:
3 pieces of craft lace - 2 shorter pieces of equal length and 1 longer piece that is three times that length; the length you choose for the shorter pieces will be the length of your finished lanyard.

Starting, Doing, and Finishing the Stitch:

Tips:
The first few stitches may look funny the first time you try this lanyard. Just keep making stitches and the lanyard will start to take form.

I used the same color for my two shorter pieces in the video, but you can also try using different colors.
