Scoubidou Superbrick Stitch

The Scoubidou Superbrick Stitch is again one of the much more advanced stitches and can take a while to learn so don't worry if it takes you a bit of time to get going. Try having a go at the Scoubidou Square Stitch and then the Scoubidou Brick Stitch, then you'll understand this scooby project much better.

You will need:

Three strands of Scoubidou that are the same length

One that is approximately 1½ times as long as the first three.

To find the centres of all four scouby strings.

Starting Stitch
1. Begin by laying three of the scoubidou strands horrizontally across the other strand (black in our case).	2. Now pick up the end of the black scoubidou closest to you and flip it away from you to create a loop.	3. Now pick up the other end of the black scoobie furthest from you and flip it towards you creating a second loop.
4. Pick up the scoubidou on the right furthest from you (pink) and take it over the loop closest to it and under the second.	5. Pick up the other end of the same pink scoubidou, and again take it over the first loop and under the second.	6. Now pick up the right side of the purple scoubidou and take it over the first loop and under the second.
7. Repeat this with the left side of the purple scooby, it should look a little something like the picture!	8. Now grab the right side of the orange scoubidou (closest to you) and take it over the loop closest to it and under/through the second.	9. And again do the same with the left side of the orange scoubidou.
10. Grab the scoubi strands on the left with your left hand and the ones on the right with your right hand and pull as tight as you can!	11. The stitch should look like this when you have pulled the scoubidous tight enough.	12. Turn the stitch over and there should be a loop created (black), this is so you can attatch it to a keyring for example.
Main Body
13. Pick up the end of the black scoubidou closest to you and flip it away from you to create a loop.	14. Now pick up the other end of the black scoobie furthest from you and flip it towards you creating a second loop.	15. Grab the right side of the pink scoubidou and take it over the loop closest to it and through the second.
16. Now take the left side of the pink scooby over the right loop and under/through the left one.	17. Now its time for the purple scoobidou (right side first), over then under!	18. Repeat this with the left side, over then under.
19. Time for the orange scoubidou again, right side first.	20. Repeat with the left side (over then under)!	21. The stitch should look like this once you hav pulled all the scooby strings tight enough!
Completion Stitch
22. And should look something like this when you hav done a number of stitches.	23. To complete the project, create one more Superbrick Stitch but leave it loose this time.	24. Now grab any one of the scooby strands and take it under the strand to its left then up through the centre of the stitch (this can be quite fiddly and may take a while).
25. Repeat this with the other seven strands so they are all going up through the centre of the stitch in the same direction.	26. Pull all the strands tight to finish the knot, making sure it cannot unravel!	27. Carefully snip off the ends with a pair of scissors to tidy the ends up.
28. This is how the Superbrick Stitch should look when properly completed!.
