I do have a different way for you. Look at the link below and note the Tibetan way of lacing lamellar. You will notice on illustartion d. a row that uses two laces. I can show you the method if you are at the Dun Carraig event this week or the Ponti Alto event next week. I have relaced my lamellar that way as I find it far less likely to unravel if a lace gets cut/worn through.
