7. ...;
8. Now, instead of going through the top of the eyelet, go through the bottom, from inside to out on both sides;
4:15 - Method 2: Diamond
1. Starting from the two bottom opposite facing holes, insert each end of the shoelace from the inside. Make sure both sides of the remaining laces are equal;
2. Take the string in the last eyelet on the left and put it in the third on the right;
3. Then put that same string under to the previous eyelet;
4. Then take the string in the last eyelet on the left and put it in the third on the right;

10. Pass the same rope again through the second right eyelet from the top.
11:54 - Method 4: Bar Lacing
1. Put a metal tag on the lace so that it is in the middle of the lace;
2. Insert each end of the shoelace downward through one of the bottom two eyelets;
3. Then feed the leftight lace underneath the shoe so that it pops out of the second eyelet on the left side;

3. Then do the same with this lace but on the other side;
4. Repeat these steps until you reach the final eyelets;
6. ...;
7. Insert the right lace through the loop you have now created on the left;
8. Keep going until you reach the final loops.

4. Take the string in the first eyelet on the left and put it in the second on the right;
5. Take the string in the first eyelet on the left and put it in the second on the right. ( Use your finger to limit the lace);
6. Keep going until you reach the final eyelets;
7. ...;
8. Now, instead of going through the top of the eyelet, go through the bottom, from inside to out on both sides;
9. Wrap the laces around the first finger of your lower hand;
10. Cross the lace ends over the wrap and pinch them under your thumb;
11. Work your fingers out of the wrap to create a loop;
12. Fold the excess laces over you and thread the folded end into the eyelets;
13. Adjust the laces to the length you need.

Love the simplicity of the zigzag approach. One side is just up-in, across-out, up-in, across-out all the way - while the other side is just going through the connections made by the other side. Kind of got stuck in my head now.
