My New Lucet
I figured some of you might not know what a lucet looks like. Well, here it is:
You see it surrounded by several lucet cords.. The curl that extends on the right-hand side of the picture is made with a double-strand of worsted weight yarn. The bigger “chunk” on the left-hand side is a chord made out of a single-strand chord.
Essentially, a lucet is used to make a 4-sided cord that’s incredible strong and (depending on what material you use) much less stretchy than other types of cord-making (i.e. a knitted I-cord). It’s VERY fast and very easy (once you figure it out).
Grace and peace,
`tim
