<DIV>Regrettably, it cannot. I have a spare one that you can use on Friday, if I can find it as my house is being packed for moving :-)</DIV>

<DIV>The best lucets are from The Spanish Peacock, and you can contact them by email. They are local merchants. Here is the link to their website: <A href="http://www.spanishpeacock.com/catalog.htm">http://www.spanishpeacock.com/catalog.htm</A></DIV>

<DIV>I would recommend the "speed" lucet, as it is the most ergonomical of all. Really good. They start at $12.00, which is not bad considering the workmanship and the nice material. Some other people sell lucets at events as cheap as $5.00, but they cannot compare to these. You may want to look into those too, if you so wish, although I don't have info on their websites :-(.</DIV>

<DIV>A lucet is a two pronged small wooden implement used to make cording. It is believed that it dates from the Viking era. It is a lot of fun. Here is a website that will give you the idea: <A href="http://www.nwta.com/couriers/8-97/lucet.html">http://www.nwta.com/couriers/8-97/lucet.html</A></DIV>

<DIV>If you are coming on Friday, I can show you how it is done. :-)</DIV>

<DIV>Hello All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just a reminder that I will be teaching a basic lucet class this Friday, October 15th, at Perronelle's place during the combined bardic/A&S/scriptorium night.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>You will need: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. A lucet </DIV>
<DIV>2. Some cord. Crochet yarn works, although I do prefer DMC cotton pearle No.5 as it slides easier. You can pick it up at any Michael's or other similar craft or embroidery store.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For those of you who already know how to do the basic square braiding, I can teach you flat and double color braiding. :-)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers,</DIV>
