Solve the Edges

Solve Pairs of Edge Pieces

Goal

To solve the Edge pieces, find two Edges with the same colors and pair them together:

Step 1

Identify an Edge piece that needs to be paired. Hold the Cube so the piece is between the FRONT adn RIGHT faces.

Step 2

Find the other Edge piece with the same two colors. Use some combination of the turns U, L, D, and B to get the other Edge between the FRONT and LEFT faces.

Step 3

If the Edges are not directly across from each other, follow this sequence to line them up:

Step 4

Once the Edges are across from each other, follow this sequence to pair them:

Step 5

Repeat these steps until all 24 Edge pieces are paired.

Congratulations! If you Cube looks like this you have solved Stage 3!
