Rule #1: Centers Never Move
The center piece (with only one color) determines the color of the entire side. Even when you scramble the cube, the centers stay in place relative to each other!
Stage A: The Daisy
Get Ready
Your goal is to surround the Yellow Center with 4 White Edge pieces. It doesn't matter if they match the sides yet!
-
- Find the Yellow Center and point it at the sky.
-
- Find edges with white stickers.
-
- Rotate layers to bring them to the top layer.

Stage B: The White Cross
The Finish
Now, we must "park" the white petals on the bottom side (The White Center). This is where alignment matters!
Match
Look at the front side sticker of a white petal. Rotate the top layer until that color matches the center color beneath it.
Flip
Turn the face with the matching colors twice (180°) so the white petal moves to the bottom face.
Repeat
Go back to the top layer. Find the next petal. Repeat the Match & Flip steps until all 4 are moved!
Success Check!
Turn the cube over. You should see a white cross, and the side colors of those 4 edges should line up perfectly with their centers.

Pro Tip
If a white edge is stuck on a side layer, rotate that side face once to move the piece to the top or bottom layer, then fix your petals!
