I’ve watched many tutorials and without a doubt her method makes the most uniform cord. Highly recommend using this technique. Thank you!!
I have watched so many lucet fork videos and your instructions are the clearest by far. You're an excellent teacher. I received my first lucet yesterday and look forward to making lots of cord.
So glad you liked it!
This reminds ne of the French knitter. Is a tube with multiple legs around the top. The width of the cord created can be varied depending on how many legs are used.
that sounds very useful I sure would like to know what it looks like is there a way that we can see it
wow I just looked it up on the internet that reminds me as a child we used to take finishing nails and put them in a spool of thread and made a cord. I was a child back in the 50s and you are saying it's called a French knitter how funny is that that? After all these years to learn the name of that tool. Thank you for sharing🤗🤗
@@janethubbell2608 that is so funny. It sounds like you are a decade ahead of me. I never knew the name until recently in a You Tube video where they were explaining how to use them. I was facinated by the name, French Knitter. Like you once I saw it I realized I had used them before without knowing the name.
@@janethubbell2608 yes! when I was a kid we made them with popsicle sticks, toilet rolls and tape haha! We called them tom boys, and it made tom boy stitch
It was also called a Knitting Nancy.
I've looked at around 7 videos on how to Lucet. This is by far the best. I'm so happy I found you in my news feed (the pheonix swimsuit coverup) I have learned how to Lucet and do the drop loop dowel rod stitch from you. I also purchased the pattern. Thank you so much! You are a wonderful teacher. 💯
Glad it was helpful!
I completely agree! I feel like I can actually do it now!
I’ve never heard of or seen one of these. This is interesting. It amazes me someone actually thought of and made this. It’s a simple item.
Thank you for teaching me something new today.
it goes back to the 12th century :)
WOW! I’ve never even heard of this tool. But now I really want one! Great tutorial! Thank you 😊
This is really cool, I never knew something like this existed! And it seems like the hook used with a knitting loom would be useful here.
I'm doing this from now on. Thanks for sharing!
I had never seen one of these before. Very cool ! Now I want one lol.
I found this video looking for a nice and clear tutorial on the lucet fork, loved it, threw a quick look onto yiur other videos and realised you're the one who made the adorable dog pull over, which was my first real crochet project. Love it ❤❤
Lots of people, including myself, use lucet wool for Viking Age reenactment. So many uses! Button hope loops, drawstrings, garter ties, string to hold your pendants. I have several pieces of my outfits made from lucet, and it has never broken once, my drawstring pants included!
Thank you for making this so clear! Some people go too quickly, but you have really slowed it down so that it is easy to follow. I'm excited to get or make a lucet and make my own cords for period or history bounding clothing. Great video!😊
Wow! Excellent, easy to follow Lucet tutorial!! Have had my fork for years with little luck. I was considering buying a different fork thinking the tines were too close together. Easy peasy now, thank you!!
I love your tutorial. I watched about 6 others before I found yours and yours is the best and easiest to understand! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent, clear and thorough instructions. Thank you.
Oh my gosh! I had abandoned my lucet fork! You’ve made me try again and I have a cord! Thank you!
I love the way You demonstrated Using the Lucet, I purchased one years ago and cannot find it but You've inspired Me to get another, the cording comes in so handy for many crafts and projects. Thank You for Sharing!
As a crocheter, thank you for the explanation!
This is the best tutorial for the lucet!
This video is great. I just got my lucet this afternoon and am already making cords. Thank you!
Thank you for this tutorial. I hadn't heard of a Lucet fork before, so after watching I ordered one and started following along to learn how. Pulling the loop over with my fingers bothered my hand so I dug out my hook from my loom project bag and tried using it. It worked well but I have to be careful not to split the threads. After some practice, with an old scrap ball of yarn, I am getting the hang of it and my cord is more consistent without my fingers getting irritated. I like to make pull string bags and making my own cords will be a great addition!
So cool. I havnt got one but I'll definatley watch what your going to do with it in the future. I may have to go and find one on line! Thankyou for sharing this x
As someone who always needs to be doing something with their hands, this looks like a great to keep them busy while watching a movie or on a long car ride.
I tried to learn lucet a few years ago, and I just didn't understand the rotating until now. This is the best tutorial I've watched. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
I've always wondered how to use the Lucet fork, it's so simple. I will be getting one, thank you for the video, I hope you have an inspiring week
Thank you! You too!
Thank you so much!!! I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong and I was just using insane tension. It looks beautiful now.
You make this look so easy, so tempted to get one away to see how much a lucet is 😆
Where the heck have I been all this time? I've never seen this before. It looks like it's so much fun to use! Now I must get one! 😂 Thanks for the wonderful tutorial!🩷
Great explanation! Thank you so much. Just got my lucet fork.
You are the most clear, that I have seen :)
Very very nice illustration. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you. This method creates even loops, than other demos. Your's is the best method as you can see where you need to adjust the loops, in order to be even.
Glad it helped!
I just got a lucet fork and followed your video. You give such clear instructions and I really love that you took the time to explain what to do if you need to stop midway. My tension needs some practice because it’s quite loose compared to yours but thank you very much for the video.
Thank you for showing me how the lucet 😊
That fork is so cool.
Super helpful, thank you!
awesome idea with the hair tie!
I’ve been using a Lucet Fork for a few years. It’s very meditative once you get going. Cords grow very quickly. My only problem with it is if I make a mistake, I don’t know how to correct it. I usually have to restart from beginning. Maybe a future video from you 😀
Agreed! Also picking it back up after pausing mid-string. I never know how to start again if I have to stop!
Love that. Thank you.
🤩🤩🤩👍🏼 that is really cool!
👍🏻 Excellent direction 😁 Thank you 🫶
Nice. I've heard of the Lucet Fort, but never saw one used.
Great vid and your nails look great!
Thank you!! 😊
Thank you!
Thank you so much. 🥰💕💋💐🌹
I have never heard of this...is there a story about this? It’s really cool. My grandkids would love this.
Love this video and yes by far the best after researching for a while. Where can I purchase that exact Lucet Fork?
it seems as though a hook weight might be useful with this tool, I'll have to try it!
interesting video :) this reminds me a lot of a german "Strickliesel" ^^ but those usually have 4 loops
Could you use a small macramé type cord to make it thicker?
Yes! I did that to make a lanyard keychain =)

Is it hard to fix if both loops come off the fork when you try to lift that loop on the right side of fork?
It can be, but if you pull out a few loops you can get an idea of where to pick them back up. Ripping a few rows/loops out slowly helped me wrap my head around what I was actually doing. Hope that helps!
Your Lucet fork is beautiful woodwork. Looks like a cherrywood. I will look for something better than Amazon trash.
I love your lover fork. Where did you get it?
Hi! i got it from Furls ☺
Do you have a link to the lucet fork you are using in tutorial?
Hi! That Lucet Fork can be found here: furlscrochet.com/products/lucet-fork?variant=31469694156867&sscid=21k6_8elfj&
I keep setting my cord down on the fork and I lose the loop. Then I have to start over I have no idea how to fix it and I can’t find any videos on how to help.
I don’t see where to get this particular tool I saw others I didn’t like as well? Could you link that here
Furls.
I’ve seen them on eBay
Yes you can get this one from Furls, or ebay and I'm sure Amazon has some. Here's the written post about it with a link if needed: hearthookhome.com/lucet-fork-tutorial/
How Cool is that?
Now I know what that's for.
I'm watching lucet videos tonight because my dog ate my lucet and I won't get a new one til Thursday
how stretchy is the cord?
Not too stretchy, which is good I think!
@@HeartHookHome Yes, that's good.
In the name of the great bobby duke. I wawnt that. Imma carve a lucet fork
I mean...you say making lucet cord is faster than crocheting a cord, which is totally incorrect. I can whip out a long, long piece of cord from crochet way faster than the same length in lucet. The reason you might want to lucet instead of crochet is if you're doing historical re-enactment from a time period that crochet didn't exist.
Interesting but too fidgety for me.
