Hi Bobby-

That looks like a Mexican Basket Weave type of lacing. I have this book : http://springfieldleather.com/store/product/2341/Book%2CHow-to-Lace/

Most leather suppliers carry the booklet.

Thanks for the reply! I wasn't really sure if it was called lacing or sewing??

Grab the book the encyclopedia of lacing, it is a wonderful book that will show just about everything related to lacing of most types. It is money well spent.

I wear out this type of lacing! The Spanish round braid is what I use about 99% of the time I lace. I use several books from Tandy to Glicks to Bruce Grants book and they have great instructions. I have taken a photo copy of the lacing and stuck in my lacing bag when I have to lace on the go.

Awesome lace techniques.......good luck
