Braiding with a medieval lucet...
Weaving with a lucet is easy and quick to learn. You don't have to cut the thread to a certain length, which is very practical because you can make a cord of any length without having to determine the size beforehand. You can also use different techniques and variations to get cords in different colours and styles.
