The method begins with the puzzle solver making a cross on one face with the edge pieces ensuring that all edge colours match the adjacent center colours (step 1 in the diagram below), then putting the corners into position between the edges (step 2). ByThe then, thefirst layer shouldis bethen solvedcomplete. In step 3, the four edge pieces of the middle layer are solved. At this point the first two layers are solved. In step 4, a cross of the opposite color is made on the last layer. For step 5, the last layer edges are permuted (swapped around). In step 6, the last layer corners are permuted. Finally, the last layer corners are oriented.<ref>[http://www.learnhowtosolvearubikscube.com/how-to-solve-a-rubiks-cube-solution-overview/ Eight steps: layer by layer method to the Rubik's cube]</ref>
