Description

There doesn’t seem to be any primary evidence of when lucettes first came into use, finger woven braids give very similar looking braids, so until we are permitted to unravel some extant braids we’ll probably not know!

This image (if you look closely at the weaver’s waist!) could show a lucette waiting to be used. We’d like to think so anyway!
