It took me about five years after folding the Woven Square Box to fold a tessellation with multiple molecules used on the box. This model differs from Square Interlace Tessellation by just one fold: in the last step, there is a simple valley fold instead of a reverse fold. This small modification changes the look of the tessellation quite a bit. The valley fold has the tendency to unfold (can you spot it in the picture?), so either use paper with very good memory, or resort to wet folding or ironing to keep the folds in place.
