Answer 1

I don't know if I can explain this so bear with me.

You tie a regular bow then take each loop and pinch it in the middle so you have 4 loops and then tie again.  Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Double Lacing

Lacing Technique:

1. Start with two different coloured laces, each shorter than the original laces from that shoe.

2. Feed one lace (purple in my diagram) straight across the bottom and emerge from the bottom two eyelets.

3. Cross the ends over and, skipping one set of eyelets, feed under and emerge from the third set of eyelets.

4. Continue crossing over and going up two sets of eyelets at a time until you reach either the top or second from top set of eyelets.

5. Take the other lace (orange in my diagram) and, starting from the second set of eyelets, repeat steps (2) through (4) until the remaining eyelets are laced with the second lace.
