Lucet and i-cord

My husband made me a lucet fork so I needed to learn how to use it. A lucet is used to make I-cord.


I watched two good demonstrations. The first one is by Goodknitkisses . She shows you how to create a few other items that can be used as a lucet fork - including an actual fork!

The second one is by Craig at Fiber Spider. I use a lot of his videos so had to include him here. He demonstrates how to cut your cord and fix it so it doesn't come undone.

Another one is by Coco Crochet Lee using the Furls lucet fork. This is a shorter video so you may need to pause it to give you time to follow.

Another way to make I-cord is to use a knitting mushroom. This is a fun thing to do and now and then I pick my mushroom up and play. My problem is I never know what to do with the cord when I'm done. LOL Note that the lucet uses two prongs and the knitting mushroom uses 4.



I did make a short cord with the lucet but I'm terrible at it. LOL I need more practice. If you decide to try it I would not give up but keep at it. 

Happy crocheting!
