	Lucet - Cunnan (Site not responding. Last check: )
		No one has been able to prove the useage of the lucet between these two time periods yet, however finds of other braiding techniques including plaiting and fingerloop braiding have been documented between the 10th and 16th centuries.
		Lucets mostly produce square-profiled cords that are quite neat and nifty, and VERY tough (perfect for poynts or draw-strings), but use up a lot of thread to produce.
		Braids made on a lucet need to be made from thread that can take a bit of abrasion, as the technique will cause the thread to rub against the horns of the lucet when the loop is pulled tight.

	Lucets
		If the lucet has a hole at the base, put the free end of the thread through it from the front, otherwise just hold the thread there with your left thumb.
		Turn the lucet clockwise (as seen from above), which has the effect of wrapping the yarn around the peg which is now on the right.Lift the bottom loop over the top loop on the right prong, and pull the yarn to tighten the loop.
		Start the lucet cord the usual way, and work until the cord is established and sturdy (and you get close to the section where you want beads.) Take the end of the beading weft, and lay it across the center of the lucet, across the developing cord.

		Lucet turned, crossed his arms over his chest and wore one of those infuriatingly smug Cardassian smiles that made Ando want to punch him in the mouth.
