Lucet
Workshop















Leather cord by Rachel Hardy



This
month we were taken through the techniques possible on the Lucet.

Rachel Hardy living
in The Netherlands, was our
tutor and taught us how to use this two pronged tool for making strong
cords with little stretch.

Many variations made discovering this technique a lot of fun and
several alternative lucets were invented.
